Overview of Password Expiration settings

hw23_PassExpRulesSettings_new_2013.jpg This section determines the behavior of the Password Expiration Web Part. For further details of the Web Part behavior, see Use Cases. You can configure the following settings:

  • Redirect Page URL: Depending on the configuration, the user will either be automatically redirected to this URL, or the URL will be displayed in a message.
  • Grace period: If the currently logged-in account’s password expires in fewer days than specified in the Grace Period, the currently logged-in user sees a message or is redirected to a different page based on the Web Part configuration.
  • Automatically redirect users to the above URL: If selected and the user’s password expires within the Grace Period, the user will be automatically redirected to the URL listed in the Redirect Page URL setting. For more details, see Redirect Users to Change Their Password.
  • Display message in the Web Part: If selected and the user’s password expires within the Grace Period, a message defined in the rich text box is displayed. You can modify the message to meet your specific needs.
