Defaults
Platforms Supported
OmniSwitch 6250
Usage Guidelines
• This command is only available to the admin user because the admin user account is the only account
protected from any type of lockout attempt.
• Note that if the lockout duration time period is set to zero (the default), then locked user accounts are
never automatically unlocked.
• Only the admin user or a user with read/write AAA privileges can unlock a locked user account when
the lockout duration time is set to zero. An account is unlocked by changing the user password or with
the user lockout unlock command.
• Do not configure a lockout duration time period that is less than the amount of time configured for the
observation window.
• The lockout duration time period is a global lockout setting that is applied to all passwords configured
on the switch.
• Lockout settings are saved automatically; that is, these settings do not require the write memory, copy
running-config working, or configuration snapshot command to save user settings over a reboot.
