This enables you to inform other administrators of an impending commit that might affect their configuration changes. Based on the commit time that your message specifies, the administrators can then decide whether to complete, save, or undo their changes.(Optional) Select Allow Do Not Display Again (default is disabled) to give administrators the option to suppress a message of the day after the first login session. Each administrator can suppress messages only for his or her own login sessions. In the message of the day dialog, each message will have its own suppression option.(Optional) Enter a header Title for the message of the day dialog (default is Messageof the Day).Configure the header and footer banners.A bright background color and contrasting text color can increase the likelihood that administrators will notice and read a banner. You can also use colors that correspond to classification levels in your organization.
- Enter the Header Banner (up to 3,200 characters).(Optional) Clear Same Banner Header and Footer (enabled by default) to use different header and footer banners.Enter the Footer Banner (up to 3,200 characters) if the header and footer banners differ.Click OK.Replace the logos on the login page and in the header.The maximum size for any logo image is 128KB. The supported file types are png and jpg. The firewall does not support image files that are interlaced, images that contain alpha channels, and gif file types because such files interfere with PDF generation.
