The correct answer is C. Enter the log output on command. On Cisco TelePresence codecs, debug log messages are generated but are not displayed on the active console session until output is explicitly enabled with 'log output on'.
Question
An engineer must pull logs from an Cisco EX90 Codec for a Call setup issue. The engineer opens a Telnet session to the codec and enters the log ctx SipPacket debug 9 command. The engineer places a test call, but sees no debugs on the console. Which action must the engineer take to review the logs?
Options
- ASSH into the codec to view the logs
- BEnter the log ctx SipPacket debug all command
- CEnter the log output on command.
- DCollect logs from the web interface.

Why each option
On Cisco TelePresence codecs, debug log messages are generated but are not displayed on the active console session until output is explicitly enabled with 'log output on'.
Switching from Telnet to SSH changes the transport security but does not affect whether the codec streams log output to the session; the root cause is that output is disabled.
The 'log ctx SipPacket debug all' variant adjusts verbosity level but does not enable console output; logs would still not appear without 'log output on'.
The command 'log output on' activates console output for log messages on the current CLI session. Without this command, logs are captured internally but not streamed to the terminal, which is why no debugs appeared even though the correct context and level were set.
Collecting logs from the web interface is a separate diagnostic path and does not resolve the issue of enabling real-time console log streaming during an active Telnet session.
