If the number of consecutive failed attempts to log in exceeds the Login Intruder Limit, the user’s account is locked to prevent further login attempts. The Intruder Attempt Reset Interval is the amount of time in which consecutive login attempts must fall. For example, assume the interval is 30 minutes and the limit is 3 login attempts. If a user attempted to log in every 20 minutes, the user would never be locked out. If the user attempted to log in every minute, a lock would be implemented after the third attempt.

For LDAP clients to access this attribute, the LDAP server must be configured to map the attribute to a name without spaces or colons.
