Password constraints

All passwords on the SKM are subject to the same basic constraints. Passwords must contain at least
five different characters. Passwords must not:

contain only whitespace.

be based on the username associated with the password.

For information on additional constraints, refer to

In addition to these rules, an administrator may set up more constraints on the Password Settings for
Local Administrators section.

NOTE:

LDAP administrators cannot change their passwords on the SKM appliance. LDAP passwords must
be changed on the LDAP server.
