| Description | ||||
| Enforcing a minimum password lifetime helps prevent repeated password changes to defeat the password reuse or history enforcement requirement. Restricting this setting limits the user's ability to change their password. Passwords need to be changed at specific policy-based intervals; however, if the HP FlexFabric Switch allows the user to immediately and continually change their password, then the password could be repeatedly changed in a short period of time to defeat the organization's policy regarding password reuse. | ||||

Details
Check Text (C-230168r1113784_chk)
Determine if the HP FlexFabric Switch enforces 24 hours/1 day as the minimum password lifetime.
[HP] display password-control
Global password control configurations:
Password control: Enabled
Password aging: Enabled (60 days)
Password length: Enabled (15 characters)
Password composition: Enabled (1 types, 1 characters per type)
Password history: Enabled (max history records: 4)
Early notice on password expiration: 7 days
Maximum login attempts: 3
Action for exceeding login attempts: Lock user for 1 minutes
Minimum interval between two updates: 24 hours
If the HP FlexFabric Switch does not have password control enabled and does not enforce 24 hours/1 day as the minimum password lifetime, this is a finding.
Fix Text (F-32479r539367_fix)
Configure the HP FlexFabric Switch to enforce 24 hours/1 day as the minimum password lifetime.
