This command enables debugging at the specified level. Just about every configuration item within the IOS has a debug level associated with it. The debug ? command gives you an extensive list that allows you to find the debug level that meets your needs.
Be careful in selecting your debug level; you can easily crash a busy router with the incorrect selection. For example, debug ip packet might render a busy router useless until debugging is disabled. See Chapter 16 for more information on using debug correctly. If you get in trouble, issue the command undebug all, which disables all debug output.
Here is the output from debug ip ?:
