Expect giving me the Links can you plz directly answer what should be my step.............I already cheked out those links....but bit confused............We should be working on Tacas server or on the ASA......

On ASA, type the command:
password-policy minimum-length value
Example:
hostname(config)# password-policy minimum-length 8
You can even specify how many minimum special characters, numeric, lower-case & upper-case character you required.
password-policy minimum-lowercase value
password-policy minimum-numeric value
password-policy minimum-special value
password-policy minimum-uppercase value

New Features for ASA Version 8.4(4.1) support for password policy and password change.

that means we have to conclude that......ASA Version 8.2 (5) by default supports password of length 8 character..>????
Is that what you mean to say????
12-09-2012 11:03 PM
Yes, Password-policy command is required to change the minimum length of the password which is supported by version 8.4(4.1).
No such feature is supported by 8.2 (5).
For details have a look into below link:
