NETGEAR 8800 Chassis Switch CLI Manual num_days none Specifies the length of time that a password can be used. The range is 1 to 365 days. Resets the password to never expire. Default N/A. Usage Guidelines The passwords for the default admin account and the failsafe account never expire. The time limit is specified in days, from 1 to 365 days. Existing sessions are not closed when the time limit expires; it will not open the next time the user attempts to log in. When a user logs into an account with an expired password, the system first verifies that the entered password had been valid prior to expiring and then prompts the user to change the password. Note: This is the sole time that a user with a user-level (opposed to an administrator-level) account can make any changes to the user-level account. Using the none option prevents the password for the specified account from ever expiring (it resets the password to the system default of no time limit). Example The following command sets a 3-month time limit for the password for the account marketing: configure account marketing password-policy max-age 90 configure account password-policy min-length configure account [all | ] password-policy min-length [ | none] Description Requires a minimum number of characters for passwords. Syntax Description all name Specifies all accounts (and future users). Specifies an account name. 22 | Chapter 2. Commands for Accessing the Switch
