[asterisk-users] High verbose set at console effects the logger file "Full" - Why is that?

[Bruce B]

So, based on what you are saying if I issue the command "core set verbose
0" and then exit the system Fail2Ban will stop working for Asterisk (this
is since Fail2ban works based on the log file entries).

Can anyone else please confirm that as well.

Thanks again for your input.
