I currently have a Firepower 2100 series and was testing the number of failed login attempts to confirm there was a setting enabled. It appears to have a faillock set after 3 failed attempts with a 5 minute lock before the user can attempt to log in again. I've looked through various Firepower documentation but I cannot locate where this setting is located in order to modify it. Any help or guidance is greatly appreciated. Thanks!

@softdevca there is the FTD CLI command configure user maxfailedlogins.
"To set the maximum number of consecutive failed logins for a user, use the configure user maxfailedlogins command."
configure user maxfailedlogins <username> <number>

Marce/Rob,
Thanks for those reference guides however I believe those are the commands to configure via console cable connection rather than the IP GUI FDM CLI. I attempted the maxfailedlogins command in the CLI console (see attached screenshot) of the GUI page however I receive a "This command is not supproted" error. Are you not able to change the default setting for an admin user account?
