When doing sh log
, I can see there is a monitor logging configured.
I know that console logging is send to the physical console port, and that buffer logging is sent to the memory of the Switch/Router, and trap logging is sent to a Syslog server. Where is the data going if logging Monitor is configured??

If you mean the
terminal monitor
command, that will send debug and system messages to the current terminal session. If you are connected to the device via a VTY line, you need to use this command to see those because it may look like you are connected the the CON line, but you are not.Cisco maintains extensive documentation that is just a search away:
Cisco IOS Configuration Fundamentals Command Reference, Release 12.2:
The
logging montor
command will enable terminal line (monitor) logging.Cisco IOS Network Management Command Reference
