Configuring Password Policy
Choose Device Settings > Security > Password Policy to open the
Password Policy page, where you can:

Force users to use strong passwords.

Force users to change passwords at a regular interval -- that is,
password aging.
Use of strong passwords makes it more difficult for intruders to crack
user passwords and access the SRC.
To configure password aging:
1. Select the 'Enabled' checkbox of Password Aging.
2. In the 'Password aging interval' field, type a value or click to
select a time option. This setting determines how often users are
requested to change their passwords.

If you type a value, the value must be followed by a time unit,
such as '10 d.' See Time Units (on page 229).
3. Click Save.
To force users to create strong passwords:
1. Select the 'Enabled' checkbox of Strong Passwords to activate the
strong password feature. The following are the default settings:
Minimum length = 8 characters
Maximum length = 32 characters
At least one lowercase character = Required
At least one uppercase character = Required
At least one numeric character = Required
At least one special character = Required
Number of forbidden previous passwords = 5
Note: The maximum password length accepted by SRC is 64
characters.
2. Make changes to the default settings as needed.
3. Click Save.
