USER ACCESS COMMANDS
SECURITY
-PASSWORD MIN-LIFETIME-ENFORCE
security-password min-lifetime-enforce
Overview Use this command to configure a minimum number of days before a password can
be changed by a user. With this feature enabled, once a user sets the password, the
user cannot change it again until the minimum lifetime has passed.
Use the no variant of this command to remove the minimum lifetime.
Syntax
security-password min-lifetime-enforce <0-1000>
no security-password min-lifetime-enforce
Default By default, no minimum lifetime is enforced.
Mode Global Configuration
Usage notes The minimum lifetime is helpful in conjunction with a security policy that prevents
people from re-using old passwords. For example, if you do not allow people to
re-use any of their last 5 passwords, a person can bypass that restriction by
changing their password 5 times in quick succession and then re-setting it to their
previous password. The minimum lifetime prevents that by preventing people
from changing their password in quick succession.
Example To force users to wait at least 2 days between changing passwords, use the
command:
awplus(config)# security-password min-lifetime-enforce 2
