passwords lock-out

attempts

Specify the number of times a user can enter an incorrect

password before being denied access to the management

interface.

NOTE:

Password lockout applies only to local users. Users

authenticated by RADIUS and TACACS+ are subject to the

policies defined by the RADIUS or TACACS+ server.
When a lockout count is configured, a user who is logging

Otherwise that user will be locked out from further switch

access. Only an administrator with an access level of 15 can

reactivate that user (Range 1–5).
