User Guidelines
This limit is not enforced unless the passwords strength minimum special-
characters command is configured with a value greater than 0. In other words,
a configuration of 0 allows a password consisting entirely of special characters
to pass strength check validation.
Example
console(config)#passwords strength minimum special–characters 6
passwords strength max-limit consecutive-
characters
Use this command to enforce a maximum number of consecutive characters
that a password can contain. If a user enters a password that has more
consecutive characters than the configured limit, the system rejects the
password. The valid range of consecutive characters is 0–15. The default is 0.
A maximum of 0 means there is no restriction on consecutive characters.
Examples of consecutive characters are ABCDEF or 123456 or !”#$%&’().
Use the no form of this command to reset the maximum consecutive
characters accepted to the default value.
