length: Enables the minimum password length restriction function.
Description
Use password-control { aging | composition | history | length } enable to enable the password aging,
composition restriction, history, or minimum password length restriction function.
Use undo password-control { aging | composition | history | length } enable to disable the specified
function.
By default, the four password control functions are all enabled.
NOTE:
• For these four functions to take effect, the password control feature must be enabled globally.
• You must enable a function for its relevant configurations to take effect. For example, if the minimum
password length restriction function is not enabled, the setting by the password-control length
command does not take effect.
• The system stops recording history passwords after you execute the undo password-control history
enable command, but the prior records still exist.
Related commands: password-control enable and display password-control.
