If minimum character class checking isenabled, a password must contain at least one character from a minimumnumber of character classes to be valid.Even if the minimum character class checking is disabled, passwordscontaining characters from a class must still meet the specific minimumstrength limit for the matching class. If the password only contains charactersfrom non-configured character classes, the password is considered valid.If the maximum consecutive characters or maximum repeated characterslimits are configured, passwords must pass these tests regardless of theminimum character class checking setting.Exampleconsole(config)#passwords strength minimum character-classes 4passwords strength exclude-keywordUse this command to exclude the keyword while configuring the password.The password does not accept the keyword in any form (inbetween the string,case insensitive and reverse) as a substring.
