unsuccessful login attempts is as follows:

Set Banner
Cisco SDM Express configures a text banner whenever possible. In some
jurisdictions, civil and/or criminal prosecution of users who break into your
systems is made much easier if you provide a banner informing unauthorized
users that their use is in fact unauthorized. In other jurisdictions, you may be
forbidden to monitor the activities of even unauthorized users unless you have
taken steps to notify them of your intent to do so. The text banner is one method
of performing this notification.
The configuration that will be delivered to the router to create a text banner is as
follows, replacing <company name>, <administrator email address>, and
<administrator phone number> with the appropriate values that you enter into
Cisco SDM Express:
banner ~
Authorized access only
This system is the property of
<company name> Enterprise.
Disconnect IMMEDIATELY as you are not an authorized user!
Contact
<administrator email address> <administrator phone number> .

Enable Telnet Settings
Cisco SDM Express secures the console, AUX, vty, and tty lines by implementing
the following configurations whenever possible:
• Configures transport input and transport output commands to define
which protocols can be used to connect to those lines.
• Sets the exec-timeout value to 10 minutes on the console and AUX lines,
causing an administrative user to be logged out from these lines after
10 minutes of no activity.
The configuration that will be delivered to the router to secure the console, AUX,
vty, and tty lines is as follows:
!
line console 0
transport output telnet
