Exec Timeout – Sets the interval that the system waits until user input

is detected. If user input is not detected within the timeout interval, the

current session is terminated. (Range: 60-65535 seconds;

Default: 600 seconds)

limits the number of failed logon attempts. When the logon attempt

threshold is reached, the system interface becomes silent for a

specified amount of time (set by the Silent Time parameter) before

allowing the next logon attempt. (Range: 1-120; Default: 3 attempts)

Silent Time – Sets the amount of time the management console is

inaccessible after the number of unsuccessful logon attempts has been
