Banner A login banner is a message that appears when users attempt to access the
system. They must acknowledge the message before they can log in.
The Banner page lets you enable the banner and select or create the message it
displays. The message may contain up to 1500 characters. If the system is in
Maximum Security mode, the login banner is enabled and can’t be disabled.
The following table describes the fields on the Banner page.
