Switch System Reference Manual
On power-up, all error messages are enabled and will go into the Error Queue as they
occur. Status messages are not enabled and will not go into the queue. As listed in
Table 11-6 , there are commands to enable and/or disable messages. For these commands,
the <list> parameter is used to specify which messages to enable or disable. The messages
are specified by their codes. The following examples show various forms for using the
<list> parameter.
<list> = (-110) Single message
= (-110:-222) Range of messages (-110 through -222)
= (-110:-222, -220) Range entry and single entry (separated by a comma)
When you enable messages, messages not specified in the list are disabled. When you dis-
able messages, each listed message is removed from the enabled list.
