> Isn't there a command to suppress the annoying "00:01:35: % SYS-5-CONFIG_i: Configured from console by console" line and dramatic pause every time you exit the config term? I was so happy to learn the "no ip domain-lookup" command to suppress the pause every time you mistype a command, but this one still stumps me. You help is appreciated. Thanks...< I believe the command you are seeking is actually "logging synchronous". Here's a quick snippet on how to configure it and how it works. First, without logging synchronous you have this(I apologize up front for any word wrap): cisco804(config)#^Z cisco804# 16w4d: %SYS-5-CONFIG_I: Configured from console by consolesh aliases Exec mode aliases: h help lo logout p ping r resume s show u undebug un undebug w where cisco804# Note that the command "sh aliases" appears immediately after the "Configured from console by console" message on the same line. Sometimes the command you typed will wrap to the next line. Here is how to turn on logging synchronous: cisco804#conf t Enter configuration commands, one per line. End with CNTL/Z. cisco804(config)#lin con 0 cisco804(config-line)#logg syn cisco804(config-line)#^Z cisco804# Now watch how the same command looks when one of two scenarios come up. The first is when I start typing the command I want as soon as I get to priviledged mode: cisco804#sh ali 16w4d: %SYS-5-CONFIG_I: Configured from console by console cisco804#sh aliases Exec mode aliases: h help lo logout p ping r resume s show u undebug un undebug w where cisco804# Notice that I started typing the command, "sh aliases", I was interrupted by a console logging message. As soon as the log message was over, it *immediately put me back where I was typing and allowed me to finish my command. Here is the same command under a slightly different set of parameters. This time, I pause before typing the command: cisco804(config)#^Z cisco804# 16w4d: %SYS-5-CONFIG_I: Configured from console by console cisco804#sh aliases Exec mode aliases: h help lo logout p ping r resume s show u undebug un undebug w where cisco804# Notice that my entire command appears on the next line (not after the word console as before). Finally, one last point on the use of the command "no logging console" to accomplish this objective. It is true that "no logging console" will stop those annoying console messages that keep interrupting you when you are working. In addiition, they will also stop these annoying messages as well: cisco804#16w4d: %SYS-5-CONFIG_I: core meltdown expected in 10 seconds. Eject the core or realign the phase converters:-) In all seriousness, don't expect any logging to work at the console when using that method, including access list violations, reboot warnings, etc. HTH, Paul Werner ________________________________________________ Get your own "800" number - Free Free voicemail, fax, email, and a lot more http://www.ureach.com/reg/tag _________________________________ FAQ, list archives, and subscription info: http://www.groupstudy.com/list/cisco.html Report misconduct and Nondisclosure violations to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
