    Understanding Firewall Authentication Banner Customization

    A banner is a message that appears on a monitor in different places depending on the type of login. (See Figure 1.)

    Figure 1: Banner Customization

    Banner Customization
    • At the top of a browser screen after a user has successfully logged into a Web authentication address as shown Figure 1
    • Before or after a Telnet, an FTP, or an HTTP login prompt, success message, and fail message for users

    All of the banners, except for the one for a console login, already have default messages. You can customize the messages that appear on the banners to better suit the network environment in which you use the device.
