The table describes the advanced user administration settings.
Setting | Description |
Password Expiration | The number of days that a password is valid before requiring a new password for each account. The default is 90 days. Setting this value to zero sets any password to never expire. For passwords to existing accounts, this setting only applies after a password is changed. For new account passwords, this setting applies immediately. |
Consecutive Failed Login Limit | Determines the number of successive failed login attempts allowed for any user account before the NetMRI UI account is locked. The number of successive failed login attempts is set to zero by default. Infoblox recommends setting Consecutive Failed Login Limit to a nonzero number. Note that the user is only locked out of their NetMRI UI account but can still log in to the administrative shell with the correct password. For more information, see the description of the Lockout Duration setting. |
Lockout Duration | Determines the number of minutes that a locked-out NetMRI UI account remains locked out before automatically becoming unlocked. The lockout duration is set to zero by default, which indicates that there is no lockout time period. Infoblox recommends setting the lockout duration to 15 minutes or more. |
Password Length | Determines the minimum permissible length of a password for admin accounts in NetMRI. The default minimum value is 8 characters. |
Password Numeric | Determines whether passwords are required to have at least one numeric character in their composition. By default, the setting is on. |
Password NonPassword Non-Alphanumeric | Determines whether passwords are required to have at least one non-alphanumeric character (&^%$#@!~) in their composition. By default, the setting is off. |
Password Mixed Case | Determines whether passwords are required to have a mixture of uppercase and lowercase letters. By default, the setting is off. |
Send audit to syslog | Sends all audit log entries to the syslog. |
