How to download a Support Information Package (SIP)?

What is a Support Information Package (SIP)?

A Support Information Package (SIP) is a collection of log files of a BOC Management Office product. Providing a SIP to the BOC hotline typically speeds up the resolution finding process for a support request.

All products of the BOC Management Office (ADONIS, ADOIT, ADOGRC) allow the encrypted download of a SIP via a web browser.

How can I create or download a SIP?

There are two ways to download a SIP from a BOC product. Both methods require that you can access your BOC product's web client:

  • Download from the web client admin page
  • Download via a direct download URL

Both methods are described here in the Administrator Manual.

Both methods are also demonstrated in the following video:

How can I assemble a SIP manually, if I do not have access to the web client?

If it is not possible to generate a SIP via web client, please save the following files in a newly created folder "Offline Log Files". You can then zip it and send it to BOC for analysis:
