By default the login security policy is disabled. Administrators must enable the
policy to enforce the new rules.
To enable a login policy:
-
Click the Administration tab. Tabs remember the page on
which you last worked, so click the Administration tab
again to ensure you are working on the Administration
page.
-
Under User Management, click User
Security. The User Security page
opens.
-
Under Login Policy Management, select the
Enable Custom Login Policy check box. All login
policy management rules are displayed.
-
Set the following rules based on your needs:
- Login Failure Limit—specify the limit for failed login attempts
in Address Manager. The default value is set to 5.
- Login Failure Limit Timespan—specify the timespan for the login
failure limit. The default is set to 5 minutes.
- Account Delay Duration—specify the account delay duration in
minutes. If the login failure limit has been exceeded within the
specified login failure limit timespan, the user's account will be
suspended. The default value is set to 30 minutes.
-
Under Change Control, add comments to describe your
change. By default, this step is optional but might be set as a
requirement.
-
Click Update.
The newly configured login security policy rules are in
effect.
