.. title:: SHELL_LOG_BACKEND

.. option:: CONFIG_SHELL_LOG_BACKEND

*Enable shell log backend*

Type: ``bool``

Help
====

When enabled, backend will use the shell for logging.
This option is enabled by default.
Disabling this option disables log output to all shell backends.
Disabling log output to a specific shell backend can be achieved
using the shell backend's LOG_LEVEL option
(e.g. CONFIG_SHELL_TELNET_INIT_LOG_LEVEL_NONE=y).
