## Deactivating route tracing

### Overview

When you are finished debugging the routes in a routing context, you should deactivate tracing for the routing context.

| Important
Deactivating tracing stops tracing and flushes the trace data for all of the routes in the routing context. This means that you cannot review any past tracing sessions.

### Procedure

To stop tracing for a routing context:

1. In the Fuse JMX Navigator tree, select the routing context for which you want to deactivate tracing.

   You can select any route in the context to stop tracing for the context.

2. Right-click it to open the context menu, and then select Stop Tracing Context.

   If Start Tracing appears on the context menu, tracing is not activated for the routing context.
