Displaying a console message when an incoming Telnet session is detected

You can configure the RUCKUS device to display a message on the Console when a user establishes a Telnet session.

This message indicates where the user is connecting from and displays a configurable text message.

device(config)# banner incoming $ (Press Return)
Enter TEXT message, End with the character '$'.
Incoming Telnet Session!! $

When a user connects to the CLI using Telnet, the following message appears on the Console.

Telnet from 209.157.22.63
Incoming Telnet Session!!

As with the banner motd command, you begin and end the message with a delimiting character; in this example, the delimiting character is $(dollar sign). The delimiting character can be any character except “ (double-quotation mark) and cannot appear in the banner text. The text in between the dollar signs is the contents of the banner. Banner text can be up to 4000 characters, which can consist of multiple lines.

To remove the banner, enter the no banner incoming command.
