Question : Cisco IOS: how to load a login banner from a txt file on drive

I am trying to configure a login banner when users telnet into the cisco box.

I figured I should use the "banner login " command.

The problem is that my text is about 20 lines.

I need a way to just upload the file from the c drive.
