When we start working on itinerary then most of time we struggle with how to do development of ESB Itinerary and search out several blogs or website.
But we forgot that when ESB toolkit installs on BizTalk Server then Microsoft also provides several samples of How to use ESB itinerary in different conditions.
At C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft BizTalk ESB Toolkit location one ESBSource zip file is available.
You need to extract the zip file under C:\Projects folder, if not available then create this folder. And at below location you can get sample project GlobalBank.ESB.Samples.Itinerary at C:\Projects\ESBSource\Source\Samples\Itinerary location.
In this project there are defined several kinds of ESB Itinerary sample scenario. You can take help of this project to build or create new itinerary.

- Under that line paste the following section:
<system.diagnostics>
<switches>
<add name=”BizTalkESBToolkit” value=”4″/>
