Passwords Lock-Out; Show Passwords Configuration - NETGEAR GSM7228PS Cli Manual

passwords lock-out

Use this command to strengthen the security of the switch by locking user accounts that have
failed login due to wrong passwords. When a lockout count is configured, a user that is logged in
must enter the correct password within that count. Otherwise the user will be locked out from
further switch access. Only a user with read/write access can re-activate a locked user account.
Password lockout does not apply to logins from the serial console. The valid range is 1-5. The
default is 0, or no lockout count enforced.
