7.5 Password Expiration
The password expiration has the following pre-set parameters:
•
maximum time (default = 90 days)
•
warning time (default = 10 days)
At the next login, the iSG18GFP will notify the user to change the password after the warning time has elapsed. A
proper message will be sent to syslog.
After the password expiration (‘maximum time’ elapsed), the iSG18GFP will notify the user upon next login and
enforce a change of the password. A proper message will be sent to syslog.
