If you want to enforce a password policy on your networking gear, you will most likely want to look into setting up a 
RADIUS server and having the devices authenticate against that.  You should be able to gain better control over 
password enforcement from within the RADIUS server.

Just my 2-cents.

Dear all,

I need to audit a CISCO Catalyst 6509 and 2950. I would like to 
know, if you can set up several users in order log their 
activities on it and how to do that.
Besides, I would like to know if you can set up password 
protection measures like:
 - Change password periodically.
 - Lenght of password
 - Historical of password

Can you set up more than one user role or just the administrator?

Thanks in advance to everybody.
