The HP FlexFabric Switch must enforce a 60-day maximum password lifetime restriction.

| Description | ||||
| Any password, no matter how complex, can eventually be cracked. Therefore, passwords need to be changed at specific intervals. One method of minimizing this risk is to use complex passwords and periodically change them. If the HP FlexFabric Switch does not limit the lifetime of passwords and force users to change their passwords, there is the risk that the passwords could be compromised. This requirement does not include emergency administration accounts which are meant for access to the HP FlexFabric Switch in case of failure. These accounts are not required to have maximum password lifetime restrictions. | ||||

Details
Check Text (C-230169r1113785_chk)
Determine if the HP FlexFabric Switch enforces a 60-day maximum password lifetime.
[HP] display password-control
Global password control configurations:
Password control: Enabled
Password aging: Enabled (60 days)
If the HP FlexFabric Switch does not have password control enabled and does not enforce a 60-day maximum password lifetime, this is a finding.
Fix Text (F-32480r539370_fix)
Configure the HP FlexFabric Switch to enforce a 60-day maximum password lifetime.
