Setting global password control parameters
The password expiration time, minimum password length, and password composition policy can be
configured in system view, user group view, or local user view. The password settings with a smaller
application scope have higher priority. Global settings in system view apply to the passwords of the local
users in all user groups if you do not configure password policies for these users in both local user view
and user group view.
The
password-control login-attempt
command takes effect immediately and can affect the users already
in the password control blacklist. Other password control configurations do not take effect on users that
have been logged in or passwords that have been configured.
