Use the pull-down menu to enable or disable the Authentication Policy on the

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 set-
ting 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.
