Use this command to exclude a specified user from the requirement to change their password after the number of days specified by the aaa authentication password local require-change max-password-age command. The user's password will remain valid after the specified interval.
Important
Password change policies only apply to users who authenticate locally. They are not enforced if a user authenticates remotely and is then mapped to a local user account that requires a password change, or if a user authenticates using an SSH authorized key.
Caution
The connection between the Central Management System appliance and its managed appliances requires "admin" credentials. The Central Management System Web services API uses "admin" credentials to authenticate requests. There are ramifications in both scenarios when the "admin" password changes. For details, see the Central Management System Administration Guide and the Central Management System Web Services API Guide.
Note
For more information about password change policies, see your System Administration Guide or Administration Guide.
