Syslog Commands

logging on

The logging on Global Configuration mode command controls error messages logging. This command
sends debug or error messages to a logging process, which logs messages to designated locations
asynchronously to the process that generated the messages. Use the no form of this command to
disable the logging process.

• no logging on
Default Configuration

User Guidelines
• The logging process controls the distribution of logging messages to the various destinations, such
as the logging buffer, logging file, or syslog server. Logging on and off for these destinations can be
individually configured using the logging buffered, logging file, and logging Global Configuration
mode commands. However, if the logging on command is disabled, no messages are sent to these
destinations. Only the console receives messages.
