Customizing the opening banner
You can customize the banner that appears when you connect to the
Ethernet Routing Switch 2500 Series. You can customize the text that reads
NORTEL. However you cannot customize the second line that reads Enter
[Ctrl]+y to begin.
The Banner Control feature provides an option to specify the banner text.
If you choose not to display the banner, the system enters the command
mode through the default command interface. You do not have to press
the Ctrl+y keys.
The Banner display that you select is used for subsequent console sessions.
For executing the new mode in the console, you must logout. For Telnet
access, all subsequent sessions use the selected mode.
This section contains information about the following commands:
"banner command for displaying banner" (page 201)
"show banner command" (page 201)
