Configuring Password Character Requirements

The character requirements specified in the global password policy determine the minimum number of
uppercase, lowercase, non-alphanumeric, and 10-base digit characters required in all passwords. These
requirements are configured using the following user password-policy commands:
Command
user password-policy min-uppercase
user password-policy min-lowercase
user password-policy min-digit
user password-policy min-nonalpha
Specifying zero with any of the these commands disables the requirement. For example, if the number of
minimum uppercase characters is set to zero (the default), then there is no requirement for a password to
contain any uppercase characters.
