Setting Up User Login Controls
You can set up login controls to make it more difficult for hackers to access the ePDU
and the devices connected to it. You can arrange to lock persons out after a specified
number of failed logins, limit the number of persons who can log in at the same time
using the same login, and force users to create strong passwords.
Enabling User Blocking
User blocking allows you to determine how many times a user can attempt to log into
the ePDU and fail authentication before the user’s login is blocked. To set up user
blocking:
1. Select Device Settings, and then select Security. The Security Settings page
displays. The User Blocking panel controls this feature. See Figure 43.
Figure 43. User Blocking Panel
2. Type a number in the Max number of failed logins field. This is the maximum
number of failed logins the user is permitted before the user’s login is blocked
from accessing the ePDU. If no number is entered, there is no limit on failed
logins.
3. Type a number in the Block time field. This is the length of time in minutes the
login is blocked.
4. Click Apply. The user blocking limits are applied.
