Locking and unlocking user accounts
If a user enters an invalid password five consecutive times, the Security Lock-
Out feature will temporarily disable that account. If a user attempts to log in
again, the software client application displays an appropriate error message.
All accounts (user, user admin and appliance admin) are subject to this lock-
out policy.
An appliance administrator can specify the number of hours (1 to 99) that
accounts will remain locked. When Enable Lock-outs is unchecked, the
security lock-out feature will be disabled and no users will be locked out.
If an account becomes locked, it will remain locked until the Duration time
has elapsed, the appliance is power-cycled or an administrator unlocks the
account via the AMP. A user administrator may unlock only user accounts,
whereas an appliance administrator may unlock any type of account.
