Setting account status using the CLI

Prev Next

Use the CLI commands in this topic to set the account status for a user.

For a managed appliance, you can perform this procedure on the Central Management System appliance as well as the local appliance. The procedure remains the same. However, you will need to take the additional step to locate the appliance on the Central Management System CLI. For instructions on locating an appliance on the Central Management System CLI, see the Trellix Central Management System Administration Guide.

To set an account status :
  1. Go to CLI configuration mode:

  3. Disable the means to log in to this account. Use the following command:

  4. Save your changes:
