Grace period—The number of days to provide as the user grace period.
The grace period allows a user to log in once to change the password. The
existing password can be used one last time after the number of days
specified in the active and warning period fields has been exceeded.
Then, a dialog box warns the user that the account will be disabled if the
password is not changed, and enables the user to change it. Continuing
with the examples above, if you allow a 5-day grace period, a user who
did not log in during the active and warning periods would be permitted
to change passwords up to and including the 30th day. However, even
though the grace period is set for 5 days, a user is allowed only one
attempt to change the password when the password is in the grace period.
Cisco Secure ACS displays the “last chance” warning only once. If the
user does not change the password, this login is still permitted, but the
password expires, and the next authentication is denied. An entry is
logged in the Failed-Attempts log, and the user must contact an
administrator to have the account reinstated.
