Commands used to manage password lockout and disabling
When you lockout a user account, it remains locked out only for a specific time period. Disabling
an account is a strong measure since it requires administrator intervention to re-enable the
account. An administrator must run the username command and re-configure the account
using the same user name and password. Use the following commands to manage password
lockout and disabling:
•
login authentication lockout
•
login authentication inactivity-period
