Re: annoying line after config t
Chuck, This should help. I currently work in a reasonable size network (for a private network any way) of some 200 network devices and remembering numbers or looking them up is a real pain. DNS lookups is MUCH easier on the grey matter. Also, if you use the following on all vty/console lines, the line you are typing will be immediately rewritten after a log line on the screen. This has the benifit of still seeing any debug lines or whatever, but still being able to read your commands.

Re: [RE: annoying line after config t]
If you want to get rid of messages coming on console but still want these messages for Troubleshooting purpose.you need to use these commands. First disable the Console logging by command: no logging console Then use this command whihc would store all the console messages in memory buffer so you can see them any time by using command "Show Log" logging buffered 10240 debugging Hope that helps.

You can adjust the log level for the console logging. Also you can set "logging buffered" so that your log output goes to a buffer which you can view when you want to.
