maximum number of login attempts reached

[abhijitkar]

maximum number of login attempts reached message shows while connect console.
How to resolve the same. Login not possible even though got login prompt.

If the login is not possible, then it seems you are typing in an incorrect username or password.. automatically after 3 incorrect attempts it will display this message and start over.

first of all i would check the logs  ... why this message always displayed.. maybe you find out which person or system try to login with wrong credentials..

if you find nothing .. it is possible to set the counter higher... default is 3 i guess

configure cli max-failed-logins num-of-logins

max count who was supported is 10.
