Description

Unable to unset “Maximum allowed users” or “Failed login timeout”.
The value by default is not set in the GUI and shows as 0 in the CLI.

 
So in effect no lockout/login attempts will get logged or users will get blocked.
In this situation this is not possible anymore because it had been set, and apparently it can never get unset anymore, only 1 until 255 are possible or else it throws error:

Integer value below minimum [maxLoginAttempts, 1]

 
 

Resolution

If we unsert maxloginAttempts the Failed login timeout will also get set to 0
 
> unset vpn vserver UG_VPN_gwprod.citrix.com -maxloginAttempts
 
There is no need for giving any value to maxloginAttempts
 
 

Problem Cause

Expected Behavior , this can not be changed by GUI and need to be done via the CLI
