Wrong PPSK entry now locks a user for 1 hour immediately (19.5.1.7-NGVA)

[carsten_buchena]

Since the upgrade to 19.5.1.7-NGVA, we noticed that users who enter a wrong PPSK (type SERVICE) are being locked for 1 hour immediately. Previously, they had a few tries before being locked.

Is this a new/expected behaviour? Is there a way to change it?

Thanks,

Thanks for letting me know, I've submitted that request for you now.

Yes, I think this would be a useful feature. Thank you Sam!

Unfortunately we don't have a way to edit those lock out setting currently, but I can submit a feature request for this if you'd like?

Sorry for late answer - Doug, looks like your guess was right. The client is trying 3 times, so if a wrong key is entered 2 times, it's enough to lock the Client:

Is there any way to change the number of 5 wrong tries to something else?
