Hi,

Below command will enable logging on console.

1(config)#logging console

You can also set the logging levels as

1(config)#logging console ?
<0-7> Logging severity level
alerts Immediate action needed (severity=1)
critical Critical conditions (severity=2)
debugging Debugging messages (severity=7)
discriminator Establish MD-Console association
emergencies System is unusable (severity=0)
errors Error conditions (severity=3)
filtered Enable filtered logging
guaranteed Guarantee console messages
informational Informational messages (severity=6)
notifications Normal but significant conditions (severity=5)
warnings Warning conditions (severity=4)
<cr>

Below Link will help you understanding the Cisco logging Levels

The original post is confusing. It specifically asks about console logging. But then it says this "how do i enable it back as i need to view my logs when i telnet to the switch". The important thing is that console logging displays messages on the console. Console logging has nothing to do with logging for a telnet session. Logging for a telnet session would relate to logging monitor or perhaps to logging buffered.

I agree with @mg.patel.tech that logging on would be the thing to do.
