sgm badloginalarm

Solaris Only

Full Syntax

sgm badloginalarm [number-of-attemptsclear]

Command Description

If SGM User-Based Access is enabled, number of unsuccessful login attempts allowed before SGM generates an alarm.

The valid range is 1 unsuccessful attempt to an unlimited number of unsuccessful attempts. The default value is 5 unsuccessful attempts.

SGM records alarms in the system security log file. The default path and filename for the system security log file is /opt/CSCOsgm/logs/sgmSecurityLog.txt. If you installed SGM in a directory other than /opt, then the system security log file is located in that directory.

To view the system security log file, enter sgm seclog. You can also view the system security log on the SGM System Security Log Web page. For more information, see the “Viewing the SGM System Security Log” section on page 21-41.

To disable this function (that is, to prevent SGM from automatically generating an alarm after unsuccessful login attempts), enter sgm badloginalarm clear.

See the “Automatically Disabling Users and Passwords (Solaris Only)” section on page 18-10for more information on the use of this command.

You must be logged in as the root user or as a super user to use this command.
