You appear to want to quit logging class 6 messages. cisco.com/c/en/us/td/docs/security/asa/asa82/command/reference/… — Ron Maupin, Commented Oct 7, 2015 at 14:27
Not really. I want to remove the field "message_class" from the logs. I tried the command "no logging class session" — apm, Commented Oct 8, 2015 at 5:38

Thanks for the comments and answers. I got the correct answer today. the first message is of emblem format and second one is default format.

We can go back to default format by using the following command

no logging emblem

You can enable or disable classes or specific messages, but you can't change the message format. You will have to do that with an external program.
