Configuring Login Messages

In the R81.10.X releases, this feature is available starting from the R81.10.10 Build 996002945 and higher version.

This section provides commands to configure Login Messages:

• Banner - A message that users see before they log in. For example, "Please enter your credentials."

  Note - You only see the banner before you enter your credentials. If the gateway remembers your login credentials, you immediately see the Message of the Day (if configured).

• Message of the Day (MOTD) - A message that users see after they log in. For example, "Maintenance window at 16:00."

Comparison:

Item	Banner Message	Message of the Day
When does it appear in Gaia Clish	When logging in (before entering the password)	After logging in
Default Message	None	None
Default state	Disabled	Disabled

Limitations:

• These messages appear only in Gaia Clish.

• Does not support the '?' character.

• Ignores the extended control characters (\n, \t, and so on).

• Each new message text overwrites the previous message text.

• Supports these maximal numbers of lines and characters:

  Message type	Maximal supported total number of characters in the message	Maximal supported total number of lines in the message	Maximal supported number of characters in each line
  Banner	1600	20	80
  Message of the day	1200	20	400
