Configuration

5.5.4.The Invalid Access Lockout Feature

When properly configured and enabled, the Invalid Access Lockout feature will watch all login attempts made at a given port. If the port exceeds the selected number of invalid attempts, then that port will be automatically disabled for a user-defined length of time.

Note that when an Invalid Access Lockout occurs, you can either wait for the Lockout Duration period to elapse, or issue the /UL command to instantly unlock all ports.

Note: The Invalid Access Lockout feature can be individually enabled/disabled at each port.

The Invalid Access Lockout Feature is configured and enabled using the Port Parameters Menu for the desired port. When "Invalid Access Lockout" is selected, the APS-8/16M will display a submenu which allows you to configure the following parameters:

1.Lockout Access: Enables/Disables Invalid Access Lockout at this port.

2.Lockout Attempts: The number of invalid access attempts required to trigger the Invalid Access Lockout feature.

3.Lockout Duration: The length of time that ports will remained locked when an Invalid Access Lockout occurs. Note that if the duration is set to "0", the port will remained locked until the /UL command is issued.
