configure account password-policy max-age
configure account [all | <name>] password-policy max-age [<num_days> |
none]
Description
Configures a time limit for the passwords for specified accounts. The passwords for the default admin
account and the failsafe account do not age out.
Syntax Description
Default
N/A.
Usage Guidelines
The passwords for the default admin account and the failsafe account never expire.
The time limit is specified in days, from 1 to 365 days. Existing sessions are not closed when the time
limit expires; it will not open the next time the user attempts to log in.
When a user logs into an account with an expired password, the system first verifies that the entered
password had been valid prior to expiring and then prompts the user to change the password.
NOTE
This is the sole time that a user with a user-level (opposed to an administrator-level) account can make any changes
to the user-level account.
Using the none option prevents the password for the specified account from ever expiring (it resets the
password to the system default of no time limit).
all Specifies all accounts (and future users).
name Specifies an account name.
num_days Specifies the length of time that a password can be used. The range is 1 to
365 days.
none Resets the password to never expire.
