I think that's what he's looking for. From the latest MAX docs.:

RADIUS Configuration Guide.

Configuring the message text and a list of hosts
For terminal server operators using the standard menu-driven interface, 
you can specify message text and a list of available Telnet hosts. The 
message text can contain instructions or other helpful information. The 
list of hosts consists of each host's IP address and description. 

To set up message text and a list of hosts, follow these steps: 
Create the first line of a pseudo-user profile using the User-Name, 
Password, and User-Service attributes. 

You create a pseudo-user profile to store information that the MAX 
can query-in this case, in order to store message text and a list 
of hosts. You can configure pseudo-users for both global and MAX-specific 
configuration of the message text and list. The terminal server loads 
the unit-specific information in addition to the global information. 

For a unit-specific configuration, specify the first line of a 
pseudo-user profile in this format: 

Initial-Banner-unit_name Password="Ascend", User-Service=Dialout-Framed-User

unit_name is the system name of the Ascend unit-that is, the name specified 
by the Name parameter in the System profile. 

For a global configuration, specify the first line of a pseudo-user profile 
in this format: 

Initial-Banner Password="Ascend", User-Service=Dialout-Framed-User
