Debug Command; Debug Messages - HP PROCURVE 2520 Management And Configuration Manual

Troubleshooting
Debug/Syslog Operation
As shown at the top of Figure C-10, if you enter the show debug command when
no Syslog server IP address is configured, the configuration settings for Syslog
server facility, Event Log severity level and system module are not displayed.
However, after you configure a Syslog server address and enable Syslog
logging, all debug and logging settings are displayed with the show debug
command. If you do not want Event Log messages sent to Syslog servers, you
can block the messages from being sent by entering the no debug event
command. (There is no effect on the normal logging of messages in the
switch's Event Log.)
