After new settings are saved, the corresponding processes may be stopped and 
restarted. When this condition happens, the WAP device may lose connectivity. We 
recommend that you change the WAP device settings when a loss of connectivity 
will least affect your wireless clients.

Use the Password Complexity page to modify the complexity requirements for 
passwords used to access the configuration utility. Complex passwords increase 
security.

To configure the password complexity requirements:

Select Security > Password Complexity.

Check Enable next to the Password Complexity field.

Configure these parameters:

•

Password Minimum Character Class—Enter the minimum number of 
character classes that must be represented in the password string. The four 
possible character classes are uppercase letters, lowercase letters, 
numbers, and special characters available on a standard keyboard.

•

Password Different From Current—Check to request that users enter a 
different password when their current password expires. If not selected, 
users can reenter the same password when it expires.

•

Maximum Password Length—The maximum password character length is 
a range from 64 to 80. The default is 64.

•

Minimum Password Length—The minimum password character length is a 
range from 0 to 32. The default is 8.

Password Aging Support—Check to expire the passwords after a 
configured time period.

•

Password Aging Time—Enter the number of days before a newly created 
password expires, from 1 to 365. The default is 180 days.
