Like the Welcome.NEI file, the Motd.NEI file is optional.

NETWORK LOGIN BANNERS BACKGROUND INFORMATION

Allows you to customize the various system banners: login, change password, login successful and login unsuccessful. You may also define a “Welcome” banner and a “Message-of-the-Day” banner. You do so by creating a welcome.nei file and a motd.nei file on the system’s \config directory. (Refer to the Software Overview chapter for file information). The creation of these files is optional.
