The administrator can use the configuration properties to configure the following:
  • The minimum password length.
  • The number of numeric characters that the password must have.
  • The number os special characters that the password must have.
  • The number os uppercase characters that the password must have.
  • Whether white spaces should be allowed in a password.

esa.common.user.minPasswordLen Integer 6
esa.common.user.minNumericCharCountRequired Integer 0
esa.common.user.minSpecialCharCountRequired Integer 0
