Managing password policies
Configure the node in the urn:brocade.com:mgmt:brocade-aaa namespace
to define or modify existing password policies.
Creating a password policy
The following example defines a password policy that places restrictions on minimum length and
enforces character restrictions and account lockout.
1. Issue the RPC to configure the node in the
urn:brocade.com:mgmt:brocade-aaa namespace.
2. Under the node, provide the elements that define the policy.
The following example defines a password policy that requires passwords to be at least eight
characters long, contain at least two lowercase characters, at least one uppercase character, at
least one numeric character, and at least one special character. The policy also enforces lockout
after four attempts to enter the password. The node enables the lockout
policy for admin role accounts.
