changed password, old password still works
Group of PS6000E/XV and one PS6100X running firmware 6.0.7
I changed the grpadmin password in the web interface.
Now I can log into grpadmin using either the new or old password.
How do I force the old password not to work anymore?
thanks
Mike

Is 10 characters considered a very long password? Yes the old and the new password start the same. This also happens when logging in to the CLI. While in the CLI I have done the password change again. Changed the password, then logout. Both new and old passwords still work. Is there any characters not allowed in the password?

"The password must be between 3 and 16 alphanumeric characters and is case-sensitive. (Only the first 8 characters are validated). "
That is simply bad security design.
