Configuring Password Complexity Rules
Passwords are used to authenticate users accessing the switch. Simple
passwords are potential security hazards. Therefore, password complexity
requirements are enforced by default and may be configured as necessary.
Use the Password Strength page to modify the minimum password complexity
requirements and set the password aging time.
To define the minimum password complexity requirements:
STEP 1 Click Security > Password Strength.
STEP 2 Enter the password aging parameters:
• Password Aging—Check Enable to ask the user to change the password
when the Password Aging Time expires.
