nmcHsPromptRspAttempts

Module: NMC-MIB

OID (symbolic): NMC-MIB::nmcHsPromptRspAttempts

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.429.1.2.6.16

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: INTEGER

Access: read-write

Description: This value represents the number of tries the user is allowed per prompt during any one security session. If this number is reached, the call is terminated. For the purposes of retry limiting, the user name and password are treated as a single prompt. This means that if a valid name and an invalid password are entered, the failure is counted against both the Prompt Response Attempt Limit and the Failed Logins Before Blacklist. The default for this object is 1.

What is nmcHsPromptRspAttempts?

Number of tries (1-16, default 1) allowed per prompt in a security session before the call is dropped; a failed name+password combo counts as one prompt for this limit.
