passwdCfg 2 --disableadminlockout Disables the admin lockout policy if already enabled and will set the config parameter "passwdcfg.adminlockout" to 0. By default, admin lockout policy is disabled. --setdefault Resets all password policies to default values. --showall Displays all the password configuration parameters. -repeat value Specifies the length of repeated character sequences that will be disallowed.For example, if the "repeat" value is set to 3, a password "passAAAword" is disallowed because it contains the repeated sequence "AAA". A password of "passAAword" would be allowed because no repeated character sequence exceeds two characters. The range of allowed values is 1-40. -sequence value Specifies the length of sequential character sequences that will be disallowed. A sequential character sequence is defined as a character sequence in which the ASCII value of each contiguous character differs by one. The ASCII value for the characters in the sequence must all be increasing or all decreasing. For example, if the "sequence" value is set to 3, a password "passABCword" is disallowed because it contains the sequence "ABC". A password of "passABword" would be allowed because no repeated character sequence exceeds two characters. The range of allowed values is 1-40. The default value is 1. Examples To display the current password configuration parameters: switch:admin> passwdcfg --showall passwdcfg.minlength: 8 passwdcfg.lowercase: 0 passwdcfg.uppercase: 0 passwdcfg.digits: 0 passwdcfg.punctuation: 0 passwdcfg.history: 1 passwdcfg.minpasswordage: 0 passwdcfg.maxpasswordage: 0 passwdcfg.warning: 0 passwdcfg.lockoutthreshold: 0 passwdcfg.lockoutduration: 30 passwdcfg.status: 0 To set passwd configuration parameters, specifying that a password must contain at least two uppercase characters, and that passwords expire in 90 days from the date they are defined: switch:admin> passwdcfg --set -uppercase 2 -maxpasswordage 90 Diagnostics If there is a failure, one or more of the following error messages displays: Permission failure The user is not permitted to execute the command. Command not supported passwdCfg is not supported when secure mode is enabled. Fabric OS Command Reference Manual 397 53-1000436-01
