Configuring the Username Password Exception
By default, specifying the username as all or part of a password is allowed. Use the user password-policy
cannot-contain-username command to block the ability to configure a password that contains the user-
name. For example:
-> user password-policy cannot-contain-username enable
Enabling this functionality prevents the user from specifying the username in the password that is config-
ured for the same user account. For example, the password for the account username of public can not
contain the word public in any part of the password. However, the username of another account is still
allowed.
