It has to do with remote console logging. You can set up the server to send logs to a remote server. log_address and similar commands if I remember correctly. This just changes the packet type?
Anyway, I'm not sure how this is useful at all

Basically, the server sends the logs in the same x52 packet type, and apparently some people have been able to more or less connect to a server and sniff out their logs based on that information. Well with this new command a server that (for some reason) keeps logs of things that are "sensitive" can now mask the packet type to any type they desire, so that someone trying to sniff the data would be unable to find it, because it would be like looking for a needle in a stack of needles when trying to find what the packet type was.
