Description
Use the pull-down menu to enable or disable the Authentication Policy on the switch.
This field will set the time the switch will wait for a response of authentication from the
user. The user may set a time between 0 and 255 seconds. The default setting is 30
seconds.
This command will configure the maximum number of times the switch will accept
authentication attempts. Users failing to be authenticated after the set amount of
attempts will be denied access to the switch and will be locked out of further
authentication attempts. Command line interface users will have to wait 60 seconds
before another authentication attempt. Telnet and web users will be disconnected from
the switch. The user may set the number of attempts from 1 to 255. The default setting
is 3.
