System.Net/WCF Diagnostics SDP
System.Net/WCF Diagnostics SDP package helps us with the ability to enable and collect logs for fault analysis and monitoring of WCF Service and ASP.Net application hosted on Azure/On-Premise.
- WCF tracing can be enabled for WCF Service or WCF Client (Example - Windows forms/ASP.Net).
- System.Net tracing is meant only for client applications, basically traces outgoing http web requests.
Below is relevant MSDN documentation for configuring System.Net and WCF tracing.
