How to Configure System Message Logging
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.
Setting the Message Display Destination Device
If message logging is enabled, you can send messages to specific locations in addition to the console. Beginning in
privileged EXEC mode, use one or more of the following commands to specify the locations that receive messages:
