DLP- E131 Change Security Policy on Multiple Nodes
Step 3 In the User Lockout area, you can modify the following:
Failed Logins Before Lockout—Choose the number of failed login attempts a user can make before
the user is locked out from the node. You can choose a value between 0 and 10.
Manual Unlock by Superuser—Check this box if you want to allow a user with Superuser privileges
to manually unlock a user who has been locked out from a node. The user will remain locked out
until a Superuser manually unlocks the user.
Lockout Duration—Choose the amount of time the user will be locked out after a failed login. You
can choose a value between 0 and 10 minutes, and 0 and 55 seconds (in five-second intervals).
Step 4 In the Password Change area, you can modify the following:
Require [nn] different passwords...—Choose a value between 0 and 10 to determine how many
different passwords have to be created before a password can be reused.
...or a waiting period of [nn] days before password reuse—Choose a value between 0 and 30 days
to set the amount of time (in days) before a password can be reused.
Note “Require [nn] different passwords or a waiting period of [nn] days before password reuse” is an
OR statement, meaning that either one of the two conditions that you set can be satisfied for a
password to be reused.
Step 5 In the Concurrent Logins area, click Single Session Per User if you want to limit users to a single login
session.
Step 6 Click Apply. Confirm that the changes appear; if not, repeat the task.
Step 7 Return to your originating procedure (NTP).
