Configuring password control
Overview
Password control allows you to implement the following features:
• Manage login and super password setup, expirations, and updates for device management
users.
• Control user login status based on predefined policies.
Local users are divided into two types: device management users and network access users. This
feature applies only to device management users. For more information about local users, see
