Question about password expiry for VOSS if hscure is disable?

Hi all,

 

I have a question here regarding VSP7k switch. If I disable hsecure (i.e., no boot config flags hesure), does this mean the RW or RWA password will never expire? Please advice. I don’t seem to see a clear answer in the documentation.

 

Thank you in advance.

Once you enable the boot config flag hsecure and reboot the box, the system will prompt you to change the default RW and RWA password during first login. This is because the default password/s does not satisfy the password requirements. The password must contain a minimum of two uppercase characters, two lowercase characters, two numbers, and two special characters.

As per default settings, the password will expire after 90 days but it can be extended by using the command “

password aging-time day <1-365> user WORD<1-255>
