Account and Password Policy Settings

The switch includes global password settings that are used to implement and enforce password complex-

password requirements to all user accounts configured for the switch:
• Minimum password size.
• Whether or not a password can contain the account username.
• Minimum password character requirements.
• Password expiration.
• Password history.
• Minimum password age.
In addition to global password settings, the switch also includes global user lockout settings that deter-
mine when a user account is locked out of the switch and the length of time the user account remains
locked.
