Device Lockout
The LP50 includes a security feature that prevents unauthorized access to the data partition once a maximum
number of consecutive failed login attempts (MaxNoA for short) has been made. The default "out-of-box"
configuration has a pre-configured value of 10 (no. of attempts) for each Login method (Admin/User/One-Time
Recovery Password).
The 'lock-out' counter tracks each failed login and gets reset
1. A successful login prior to reaching MaxNoA
2. Reaching MaxNoA and performing either a device lockout or device format depending on how the drive is
configured.
•
If an incorrect password is entered, an error
message will appear in red just above the
Password Entry field, indicating a login
failure. (Figure 10.1)
•
When a 7 th failed attempt is made, you will
see an additional error message indicating
you have 3 attempts left before reaching
MaxNoA (which is set to 10 by default).
