User Lock Out Security
Each authentication server mechanism has a
user
security lock out
feature. This feature
allows you to set whether users can be locked out of the system (after
entering an incorrect User ID and Password combination) by a
set
number
of attempts.
Each User Security section looks similar to the following.

Once checked, this option applies to all users validated by the server.
To set the user lock out settings,
- Check theLock Userscheck box. The Number of Consecutive fails allowed text box activates.
- Enter thenumber of attemptsthe user has before being locked out of Network Configuration Manager.
- When finished, clickApply. All entries are accepted.
When a user is locked out of the
Network Configuration Manager, an authorized user must open the
Lock
and Unlock Users
feature.
