security-password reject-expired-pwd
This command specifies whether or not a user is allowed to login with an expired
password. Users with expired passwords are rejected at login if this functionality is
enabled. Users then have to contact the Network Administrator to change their password.
Note that when the reject-expired-pwd functionality is disabled and a user logs on with an
expired password, if the forced-change feature is enabled with
command, a user may have to change the password during login
depending on the password lifetime specified by the
command.
The no security-password reject-expired-pwd command disables the reject-expired-pwd
feature.

Once all users’ passwords are expired you are unable to login to the device
again if the security-password reject-expired-pwd command has been
executed. You will have to reboot the device with a default configuration
file, or load an earlier software version that does not have the security
password feature.
We recommend you never have the command line “security-password
reject-expired-pwd” in a default config file.
