This chapter describes how to configure or use:
Login Banner Pages
Banner Pages allow you to display text messages to users before and after
authentication. Banner text information is taken from two files named prelogin.txt and
postlogin.txt stored in the /ram or /flash directory on the SCS. The SCS does not store
or display files stored in the /ram directory after rebooting.
To implement login and logout banner text:
1. Create text files named prelogin.txt and/or postlogin.txt.
2. FTP to the IP address of the SCS.
3. Log in with the username root and enter the privileged password (system by
default).
4. Change directories to /flash.
5. "Put" the text files into the desired directory.
6. Reboot the SCS.
Subsequent users logging in or out of the SCS see the text in the prelogin.txt and
postlogin.txt files, respectively. The standard company/product/version banner
displays if either of these two files is not present in the SCS.
7. To configure an external serial modem, attach the modem to any serial port and
Menus
Connecting
The SCS console server allows you to remotely manage devices and equipment from
anywhere on the network or from a remote dial-in through an attached modem. To use
the SCS as a console server, connect its serial ports to the serial console/management
ports of equipment such as UNIX servers, PBX switches, routers, network switches, or
other similar devices.
