• The Password Policy tab allows you to define the complexity policies you want to use for
your system passwords.
Adding or modifying a user profile
To add or modify the profile for a single user, follow these steps:
1 Select Management, User Manager.
The User Profile screen appears showing the current user profile information.
2 If you are adding a new user: from the Configuration menu, select Add User.
If you are editing an existing user: select the user name on the list, then from the
Configuration menu, select Modify User.
The User Profile dialog box appears.
3 Use the following table to determine what information you need to add or change:
Attribute Value Description
User Name <
a maximum of 20
characters
>
Allows you to enter the user name. The User Name is case-sensitive
and must not exceed 20 characters in length.
Note: You cannot modify a user name. You must delete the complete
User Profile row from the User Profile window and add a profile with the
new name.
ISDN note: When you enter an ISDN dial up user interface, the user
name shows up on this list. If you plan to use the secure callback
properties for an ISDN user, you need to specify a static IP address for
that interface. Refer to “Configuring an ISDN interface” in the
Programming Operations Guide
.
Password <
between 8 and 14
characters long
>
Allows you to assign a password for the user. The password is
case-sensitive and can be a maximum of 14 characters long.
Note:
• Password length is determined by the Minimum Password Length
setting in the Password policy table.
• Passwords must contain elements from three of the four following
character sets. This requirement can change, if you change the
default password policy complexity setting (“Setting password policy”
on page 389):
— upper case alphabet
— lower case alphabet
— westernized Arabic numerals
— nonalphanumeric characters ($, !, %, ^)
• A user who fails to enter the correct password can be locked out of
the system after a defined number of retries (account lockout
threshold). For information about setting the lockout threshold, refer
to “Setting password lockout policy” on page 388.
Confirmed
Password
Requires you to enter the same password again to validate the new or
modified password.
