}Prompt user at most N times before returning with error.
Number of digits (0..9) expected in user password.
N < 0, to set minimum credit for having digits in the new password, i.e. this is the minimum number of digits that must be met for a new password.
N > 0, to set maximum credit for having digits in the new password, i.e. per occurrence of digit in password will attribute additional credit of +1 towards meeting the current minimum_password_length value upto N digits.
N = 0, policy will be not applicable.
By default minimum 1 digit is required for a new password.Sets hash/cryptographic algorithm type for new passwords.
Number of lower case characters (a..z) expected in user password.
N < 0, to set minimum credit for having lower case characters in the new password, i.e. this is the minimum number of lower case characters that must be met for a new password.
N > 0, to set maximum credit for having lower case characters in the new password, i.e. per occurrence of lower case character in password will attribute additional credit of +1 towards meeting the current minimum_password_length value upto N lower case characters.
N = 0, policy will be not applicable.
By default minimum 1 lower case character is required for a new password.Reject passwords which contain more than N same consecutive characters, like aaa or 7777. To disable the check, value should be set to 0.
Reject passwords which contain more than N monotonic character sequences. Monotonic sequences can be '12345' or 'fedcb'. To disable the check, value should be set to 0.
Maximum number of characters allowed in password; user can not set their password of length greater than this parameter. By default maximum length of password is 128 characters.
Minimum number of characters expected in password;
user can not set their password of length less than this parameter.
NOTE, for existing users upgrading to NSX-T datacenter version 4.0 or above -
if existing appliance is configured with minimum_password_length
less than current default value, then upgraded appliance will reset the configured
setting back to recommended default; which can be explicitly modified back to
original value or any other integer greater than or equal to supported minimum value.
VMware recommends to set strong passwords for systems and appliances, further
suggests to maintain strong minimum_password_length value. NSX resets this
value to default and recommends to maintain upgraded default value or above
for password complexity requirement.
If any existing user passwords are set with length of less than newly configured
minimum_password_length, then its recommended to reset the user passwords
as per newly configured password complexity compliance.
If existing minimum_password_length is greater than or equal to
default value, which shall be retained as it is in newly upgraded appliance.
Number of character changes in the new password that differentiate it from the old password. To disable the check, value should be set to 0.
Limit using a password that was used in past; users can not set the same password within the N generations. To disable the check, value should be set to 0.
Number of special characters (!@#$&*..) expected in user password.
N < 0, to set minimum credit for having special characters in the new password, i.e. this is the minimum number of special characters that must be met for a new password.
N > 0, to set maximum credit for having special characters in the new password, i.e. per occurrence of special case character in password will attribute additional credit of +1 towards meeting the current minimum_password_length value upto N special case characters.
N = 0, policy will be not applicable.
By default minimum 1 special character is required for a new password.Number of upper case characters (A..Z) expected in user password.
N < 0, to set minimum credit for having upper case characters in the new password, i.e. this is the minimum number of lower case characters that must be met for a new password.
N > 0, to set maximum credit for having upper case characters in the new password, i.e. per occurrence of upper case character in password will attribute additional credit of +1 towards meeting the current minimum_password_length value upto N upper case characters.
N = 0, policy will be not applicable.
By default minimum 1 upper case character is required for a new password.
