Creating a Password Policy

To create a password policy script, create a new script by using the user administration tool or ConsoleOne^TM. The following procedure is for the user administration tool.

1. Right-click the SecureLogin icon on the system tray and then click Manage Logins.

2. Select the application that you will create the script for and then click Password Policies.

   
   

3. (Conditional) Click New.

   If you have already created a password policy that meets the requirements that you intend, select it.

   
   

4. Enter a name and then click OK.

   For example, for the DevNet application, enter devnetpol instead of DevNet. Describe the application but don't use the same name used on the Login page.
