Logging in After Entering an
Incorrect Password
After you enter an incorrect login BMC password at leat 5 times, you will be locked out. Here is
some important information about how you can log in to the BMC again.
After entering incorrect passwords at least 5 times, you will be locked out for 10 minutes
before you can attempt to log in again. During this 10-minute period, if you enter an incorrect
password again, the lockout period is extended.
The lockout period is calculated in the following way:
10 minutes * (failure count - 5 tolerances)
For example, if you entered incorrect passwords 7 times, you must wait for 20 minutes
(10 * (7
– 5)
before you can log in again.
Important:
The start of the current lockout period is calculated from the
latest
incorrect
password that you entered and
not
from the first lock time.
If you need to unlock users immediately, you must reset the BMC.
