Hi

 

Is there a chance to temporarily disable one (1) super admin account? I have created a super admin account for our vendor access and I wanted to disable it once in a while after the support. Thank you.

    Try "set schedule none" in the account config. Since the setting doesn't show up in GUI, you need to remember what you did then "unset schedule" or "set schedule always" to re-enable it.

    You could do  this

     

    config firewall schedule recurring     edit "none"         set day none     next end

     

    config sys admin

       edit adminname

          set schedule none

    end

     

    Alternatively you could enable  two-factor with a bogus email_address and that would technically keep them out also.
