When creating a new password, make sure it adheres to the following rules:
• Must not be less than 8 characters in length.
• Must not include the username or any 4 continous characters found in the username. For
example, if the username is Subnet25, the password may not be subnet25admin, subnetadmin
or net25admin. However, net-25admin or Sub25admin is permitted.
• Must have at least one alphabetic character and one number. Special characters are permitted.
• Must not have more than 3 continuously incrementing or decrementing numbers. For example,
Sub123 and Sub19826 are permitted, but Sub12345 is not.
