Password control configuration task list
The password control functions can be configured in several views, and different views support different
functions. The settings configured in different views or for different objects have the following application
ranges:
• Settings for super passwords apply to only super passwords.
• Settings in local user view apply to only the password of the local user.
• Settings in user group view apply to the passwords of the local users in the user group if you do not
configure password policies for these users in local user view.
• Global settings in system view apply to the following passwords:
{ Passwords of the local users for whom you do not configure password policies in both local user
view and user group view.
{ Super passwords of user levels for which you do not configure password policies.
For local user passwords, the settings with a smaller application range have higher priority.
For super passwords, the settings configured specifically for super passwords, if any, override those
configured in system view.
