• At the Failed Password Attempts Timespan (in 
minutes) [1-1440] field—with the Lockout by User-
name and/or Lockout by IP address option(s) 
enabled—enter the number of minutes that defines the 
interval in which a user can enter an incorrect pass-
word—as specified in the Allowable Number of Failed 
Password Attempts [1-10] field—before being locked 
out of the ProxyBlocker.
NOTE: If the number of failed attempts is 3 and the number of 
minutes in the timespan is 10, if any user (one or more) enters an 
incorrect password for that same username within the 10-minute 
timespan, a lockout would be made for that username on the third 
unsuccessful attempt. However, if the third failed login attempt is 
made outside of the 10-minute timespan, there would be no lock 
out for that username. In a similar scenario for an IP address 
(using the same timespan and designated number of failed login 
attempts), if any user (one or more) enters an incorrect password 
for any username (one or more) using that same machine, a 
lockout would be made for that machine's IP address on the third 
unsuccessful login attempt. But there would be no lockout for that 
IP address if the third failed attempt was made outside of the 10-
minute timespan.
