Specifying Password, Logon, and Lockout Policies


In Cisco Unified Communications Manager Business Edition (CMBE), you use Cisco Unified Communications Manager Administration to specify password and account lockout policies for phone and web-tool access, and the logon policy for web-tool access for all users who access Cisco Unity Connection voice messages.

The policies are specified on the User Management > Credential pages in Cisco Unified CM Administration. See the online Help, or the Cisco Unified Communications Manager Administration Guide for details and related topics.

Note that although you cannot set password, logon, and lockout policies in Cisco Unity Connection Administration, you can change a Connection user password on the user account page. See the "Passwords" section in the "Setting Up Features and Functionality That Are Controlled by User Account Settings" chapter of the User Moves, Adds, and Changes Guide for Cisco Unity Connection in Cisco Unified CMBE (the guide is available at http://www.cisco.com/en/US/products/ps7273/prod_maintenance_guides_list.html). Alternatively, users can change their own passwords in the Cisco Unity Assistant.

For user accounts and templates, you specify the authentication rule that will govern user access to Connection. To specify an authentication rule for a user account or template, see the "Passwords" section in the "Setting Up Features and Functionality That Are Controlled by User Account Settings" chapter of the User Moves, Adds, and Changes Guide for Cisco Unity Connection.
