Question: How do I check whether debugging is enabled on the controller and how do I disable it?
Product and Software: This article applies to all Aruba controllers and ArubaOS 3.3.2.x and later.
Issue the 'show logging level verbose' command to see what logging has been enabled. By default, the logging is set to warnings.
Example
In the following output, debugging has been enabled for network and for the stm process in wireless.
#show logging level verbose

(arubanetworks) (config) #no logging level debugging network
(arubanetworks) (config) #no logging level debugging wireless process stm
(arubanetworks) (config) #show logging level verbose

Also you can check if the debug has been enabled for a user or AP by running the 'show debug' command.
#show debug

You can disable it accordingly.
(arubanetworks) #configure terminal
Enter Configuration commands, one per line. End with CNTL/Z
(arubanetworks) (config) #no logging level debugging ap-debug 00:01:02:03:04:05
(arubanetworks) (config) #no logging level debugging user-debug 00:01:02:03:04:05
