Setting the password complexity configuration

Last Updated : Nov 27, 2019 |

About this task

The Avaya Aura® MS appliance provides the capability to configure the Linux password complexity as well as other key system security parameters. There are two pre-configured profiles provided. One profile contains the default configuration, and the other profile is a hardened configuration appropriate for deployments with more stringent requirements. If required, you can create a custom profile for the system.

Perform this procedure to set the system password profile.

Procedure

  1. Log in to a Linux® shell using the root or sroot account.
  2. To set the system configuration, type the following command: 
    /opt/avaya/bin/setSysConfig.sh <path to the desired system config profile> 
Where <path to the desired system config profile>is one of:
/opt/avaya/etc/hardened-sys-config.conf
/opt/avaya/etc/default-sys-config.conf
/opt/avaya/app/pub/custom-sys-config.conf (or any custom profile name of your choice)
