Chapter 18 Configuring SGM Security
Configuring SGM User-Based Access
Step 2 Enter the following command:
# cd /opt/CSCOsgm/bin
Step 3 (Optional) You can configure SGM to generate an alarm after a specified number
of unsuccessful login attempts by a user. To do so, enter the following command:
# ./sgm badloginalarm number-of-attempts
where number-of-attempts is the number of unsuccessful login attempts allowed
before SGM generates an alarm.
The valid range is 1 unsuccessful attempt to an unlimited number of unsuccessful
attempts. The default value is 5 unsuccessful attempts.
To disable this function (that is, to prevent SGM from automatically generating
an alarm after unsuccessful login attempts), enter the following command:
# ./sgm badloginalarm clear
Step 4 (Optional) You can configure SGM to disable a user’s security authentication
automatically after a specified number of unsuccessful login attempts. To do so,
enter the following command:
# ./sgm badlogindisable number-of-attempts
where number-of-attempts is the number of unsuccessful login attempts allowed
before SGM disables the user’s authentication. SGM does not delete the user from
the authentication list, SGM only disables the user’s authentication.
The valid range is 1 unsuccessful attempt to an unlimited number of unsuccessful
attempts. The default value is 10 unsuccessful attempts.
To re-enable the user’s authentication, use the sgm enableuser command.
To disable this function (that is, to prevent SGM from automatically disabling a
user’s authentication after unsuccessful login attempts), enter the following
command:
# ./sgm badlogindisable clear
