Enable the Administrative Security ACP License Password Rules

To enforce the stronger password rules and restrictions that the Administrative Security ACP license it provides, you must enable the password-policy-strength parameter.

• Confirm that the Administrative Security ACP license is installed on the system.
• You must have Superuser permissions.

From the command line, go to the password-policy configuration element and set the password-policy-strength parameter to enabled.

Note:

The password-policy configuration element displays the min-secure-pwd-len command. You do not need to configure the min-secure-pwd-len command because the Administrative Security ACP license overrides this command with a stronger rule.

You can configure any of the other password policy settings without a system override, according to the ranges specified in this procedure. For more information about the ranges, see "Administrative Security ACP License Configuration."

1. Access the password-policy configuration element.

   ORACLE# configure terminal
