Detection of Weak Passwords
You can configure the device to detect if a management user in the Local Users table has been configured with a weak password. The device detects this by checking if the user's password also appears in the list of defined weak passwords in the Weak Passwords List table. If the device finds a matching entry in the Weak Passwords List table, it raises the SNMP alarm acWeakPasswordAlarm (OID 1.3.6.1.4.1.5003.9.10.1.21.2.0.156), which indicates the user (username) for which the weak password was configured.
To configure this feature, you need to do the following:
| 1. | Enable weak password detection - see Enabling Weak Password Detection |
| 2. | Configure a list of weak passwords - see Configuring the Weak Passwords List |
