Setting Login Restrictions

Login restrictions can be applied by administrator users to prevent unauthorized login attempts via the UI and REST API.

Note:This does not affect SSH or Console logins.

1. Select SETTINGS > USER MANAGEMENT > Login Restrictions.
   
   

2. Enter a value for either or both of the following:

   • Maximum attempts – choose a number of attempts a user can enter an incorrect password before being locked out.

   • Lockout period – enter a number of minutes until a user can try to login again after reaching maximum incorrect login attempts.

After a user has been locked out, an administrator can unlock the account.

1. Go to SETTINGS > USER MANAGEMENT > Local Users.

2. Click the Unlock button associated with the locked out user’s row in the User table.
