chrome://net-internals/ no longer displays live network information |
|
Issue descriptionThe functionality of chrome://net-internals/ was reduced in Chrome 71. It retains the same buttons for performing actions like flushing the socket pools, and the #hsts page is unchanged. But pretty much everything else is gone. * Cannot load netlog files * Cannot display network events, timeline, or polled data This was an intentional change described in Issue 678391 . This changes existing workflows. ### Post mortem debugging #### To load a netlog file, you now use the netlog_iewer webapp instead of chrome://net-internals. Details on using this, or checking out its source are here: https://chromium.googlesource.com/catapult/+/master/netlog_viewer/ ### Live inspection of network state ### You can no longer do that. The supported model is to capture and then import (similar to chrome://tracing). Some workarounds to approximate the live view are: (1) Start and then stop a chrome://net-export/ dump, and then open it in the netlog_viewer. (2) Start an unbounded capture with chrome://net-export/ (clear the size restriction) so it saves to a single file. Then repeatedly re-load this file into the netlog_viewer app to see new events. It is understood that this is more limiting that before. Issue 892453 tracks adding back support for live inspection, under the split viewer architecture.
