Configure an account with inactivity warning

About this task

When defining or editing an account that automatically expires, you can specify a duration after which a warning is generated about the inactivity of the account.

By default, users are not warned about the inactivity of their account. Use the acct-inactivity-warning-period parameter to configure the number of days after which a warning is generated about the account being inactive. For example, when set to 20 days, a warning will be generated when a specific user account is inactive for 20 days.

Note

Without configuring expiry period, warning period cannot be configured.

Procedure

In the previleged EXEC mode, enter the configure terminal command.

SLX # configure terminal

Enter the username command with the acct-inactivity-warning-period command with the number of days.
```
SLX (config)# username aming role user password Tijd1spw acct-inactivity-warning-period 20
                    
```
The account aming is now configured to generate a warning after 20 continuous days of the account being inactive. Warning RASLOG is generated when time crosses the account inactivity warning period.
