Specifying the Policy on Login/Logout
To protect the data in the machine, configure the machine so that login and logout are performed properly.
User authentication cannot prevent unauthorized use completely. For example, an unauthorized person can log in
to the machine by guessing the password. If a user does not log out of the machine, another user can use the
privileges of the previous user.
Specify the following functions to protect the machine against such risks.
User Lockout Policy
If an incorrect login password is entered several times, the User lockout function prevents further login
attempts under the same login user name (Lockout).
To enable a locked-out user to log in, the user administrator must disable the lockout or the user
must wait until the lockout period elapses.
You can specify the number of login password attempts to permit before locking out the user and the
period of time until lockout is released automatically.
By default, the login password can be entered up to five times and lockout is not released
automatically.
Auto Logout Timer
After you log in, the machine logs you out automatically if you do not use the control panel within a given
time.
By default, the machine logs you out automatically if you do not use the control panel for three
minutes.
