Configure Account Suspension Setting
Account suspension protects the system from spurious logins through dictionary attacks. Define the
account suspension policy using the Configuration>User Accounts>Account Suspension option.
There are four roles available in the system- super user, administrator, viewer and operator. You can
configure different policies for each of these user roles. Configure the suspension time in minutes and the
number of failed login attempts during a specific time duration.
You can copy account suspension setting from one server to another when the servers are part of the
same server cluster.
To configure Account Suspension Setting for a user role, do the following.
1.
Go to Configuration>User Accounts>Account Suspension.
1 Specify a suspension time between 5 minutes and 30 minutes, during which the consecutive failed
login attempts happen.
2
Specify the number of failed login attempts between 3 and 10.
3 Click Save to save the changes made to the page.
