Examples # Set the maximum number of history password records for each user to 10. system-view [Sysname] password-control history 10 password-control length Syntax password-control length length View undo password-control length System view, user group view, local user view Default level 2: System level Parameters length: Specifies the minimum password length in characters, in the range of 4 to 32. Description Use password-control length to set the minimum password length. Use undo password-control length to restore the default. By default, the global minimum password length is 10 characters, the minimum password length of a user group equals the global setting, and the minimum password length of a local user equals that of the user group to which the local user belongs. A minimum password length setting with a smaller application range has a higher priority. That is, the system prefers the setting for a local user. If there is no setting for the local user, the system will use the setting for the user group. If there is no setting for the user group, the system will use the global setting. If you do not set the minimum password length for super passwords, the global minimum password length applies. When global password control is enabled but the minimum password length restriction function is disabled, the minimum password length is four characters, and the password must have at least four different characters. Related commands: display password-control, local-user, and user-group. Examples # Set the global minimum password length to 9 characters. system-view [Sysname] password-control length 9 # Set the minimum password length to 9 characters for user group test. [Sysname] user-group test [Sysname-ugroup-test] password-control length 9 [Sysname-ugroup-test] quit # Set the minimum password length to 9 characters for local user abc. [Sysname] local-user abc [Sysname-luser-abc] password-control length 9 155
