HP MSM3xx Management And Configuration Manual page 31

The following options can be used to prevent the management tool from being locked by an
idle manager or operator:
 Terminates the current manager session: When enabled, an active manager or
operator session will be terminated by the login of another manager. This prevents the
management tool from being locked by an idle session until the Account inactivity
logout timeout expires.
 Is blocked until the current manager logs out: When enabled, access to the
management tool is blocked until an existing manager logs out or is automatically logged
out due to an idle session.
An operator session is always terminated if a manager logs in. An active operator session
cannot block a manager from logging in.
 Terminates the current operator session: When enabled, an active operator's session
will be terminated by the login of another operator. This prevents the management tool
from being locked by an idle session until the Account inactivity logout timeout
expires.
Operator access to the management tool is blocked if a manager is logged in. An active
manager session cannot be terminated by the login of an operator.
An operator session is always terminated if a manager logs in. An active operator session
cannot block a manager from logging in.
 Login control: If login to the management tool fails five times in a row (bad username
and/or password), login privileges are blocked for five minutes. Once five minutes
expires, login privileges are once again enabled. However, if the next login attempt fails,
privileges are again suspended for five minutes. This cycle continues until a valid login
occurs. You can configure the number of failures and the timeout.
 Account inactivity logout: By default, if a connection to the management tool remains
idle for more than ten minutes, the controller automatically terminates the session. You
can configure the timeout.
Caution
If you forget the manager password, the only way to access the management tool is to reset
the AP to factory default settings. See
