Disabling Message Logging - Cisco Catalyst 9500 Manual

Configuring System Message Logs
Step 4

Disabling Message Logging

Message logging is enabled by default. It must be enabled to send messages to any destination other than the
console. When enabled, log messages are sent to a logging process, which logs messages to designated locations
asynchronously to the processes that generated the messages.
Disabling the logging process can slow down the switch because a process must wait until the messages are
written to the console before continuing. When the logging process is disabled, messages appear on the console
as soon as they are produced, often appearing in the middle of command output.
The logging synchronous global configuration command also affects the display of messages to the console.
When this command is enabled, messages appear only after you press Return.
To reenable message logging after it has been disabled, use the logging on global configuration command.
This task is optional.
