Description

This article describes how to enable and disable password expiration for specific FortiManager admin users.

Scope

FortiManager.

Solution
  1. By default, the user can enable and configure password policies such as the admin password expiration in FortiManager via System Settings -> Admin -> Admin Settings. The password policy applies on a global level and affects all admins within FortiManager as per the below doc link: Password policy
  2. However, if a user wishes to only configure the password expiration for a specific user instead of all admin users in FortiManager, the user will have to configure the password expiration for the specific admin user using CLI commands below.

 

To enable password expiration for specific admin users:

 

config system admin user

    edit <admin_name>

        set password-expire <yyyy-mm-dd>

    end

 

To disable password expiration for specific admin users:

 

config system admin user

    edit <admin_name>

        unset password-expire

    end
