Hello all, Has anyone yet seen any documentation for the wip\_bearerSetOpt API function, parameters: WIP\_BOPT\_DEBUG\_PKT, WIP\_NET\_OPT\_DEBUG\_PORT, WIP\_NET\_DEBUG\_PORT\_TRACE and WIP\_NET\_OPT\_DEBUG\_PKT\_MAXLEN. I don’t seem to be able to find it in the WIP documentation. I am aware of other people not finding information for these also but has anyone found any since then? Regards Barry ---

No - it only seems to get worse: [Undocumented: WIP\_NET\_OPT\_DEBUG\_PORT - #4 by awneil](https://forum.sierrawireless.com/t/undocumented-wip-net-opt-debug-port/1372/4)😒 ---

Hi, For the option WIP\_BOPT\_DEBUG\_PKT ,there was a documentation tracker which was created earlier and it was decided that the appropriate place to add the option would be WIP AT Command Guide. Regards Moderator ---

> [@Moderator](#): > > it was decided that the appropriate place to add the option would be WIP AT Command Guide. I think that’s a very bad idea! Surely, it’s the WIP library that is the basis of this, so the WIP Library Documentation should be the “root” ❓ Also, would you expect someone just using AT commands to be looking at Traces ❓ Again, what we need is a proper, complete API - not to have to keep messing about with AT commands! > [@New Features - Complete API](https://forum.sierrawireless.com/t/new-features-complete-api/3305/17): > > Worse than that, WIP has deprecated the wip\_netInitOpts API and now recommends that we use AT+WIPS instead exclamation Come on, Sierra Wireless - what are you thinking??! unamused Anyhow, the documentation provided in the WIP AT Command Guide is next to useless: > [@WIP AT Command Guide v5.42](#): > > WIP\_BOPT\_DEBUG\_PKT - Enable the debug traces of NET level 10 That’s it! No description at all of what the debug traces mean! Similarly, > [@WIP AT Command Guide v5.42](#): > > WIP\_NET\_OPT\_DEBUG\_PORT > This option is used to specify the port on which the debug traces are to be sent. > range: 0-3 (default value: 0) There is no descriptionof what the values 0-3 mean. And what about the other stuff: [Undocumented: WIP\_NET\_OPT\_DEBUG\_PORT - #4 by awneil](https://forum.sierrawireless.com/t/undocumented-wip-net-opt-debug-port/1372/4)❓
