Request-NsxtEdgePasswordComplexity

Synopsis

Retrieves the password complexity policy for NSX Edge nodes.

Syntax

Request-NsxtEdgePasswordComplexity -server <String> -user <String> -pass <String> -domain <String> [-drift] [-reportPath <String>] [-policyFile <String>] [<CommonParameters>]

Description

The Request-NsxtEdgePasswordComplexity cmdlet retrieves the password complexity policy for each NSX Edge nodes for a workload domain.

The cmdlet connects to SDDC Manager using the -server, -user, and -pass values:

  • Validates that network connectivity and authentication is possible to SDDC Manager
  • Validates that network connectivity and authentication is possible to NSX Local Manager
  • Retrieves the password complexity policy

Examples

Example 1

Request-NsxtEdgePasswordComplexity -server sfo-vcf01.sfo.rainpole.io -user admin@local -pass VMw@re1!VMw@re1! -domain sfo-m01

This example retrieves the password complexity policy for each NSX Edge node for a workload domain.

Example 2

Request-NsxtEdgePasswordComplexity -server sfo-vcf01.sfo.rainpole.io -user admin@local -pass VMw@re1!VMw@re1! -domain sfo-m01 -drift -reportPath "F:\Reporting" -policyFile "passwordPolicyConfig.json"

This example retrieves the password complexity policy for each NSX Edge node for a workload domain and checks the configuration drift using the provided configuration JSON.

Example 3

Request-NsxtEdgePasswordComplexity -server sfo-vcf01.sfo.rainpole.io -user admin@local -pass VMw@re1!VMw@re1! -domain sfo-m01

This example retrieves the password complexity policy for each NSX Edge node for a workload domain and compares the configuration against the product defaults.

Example 4

 Request-NsxtEdgePasswordComplexity -server sfo-vcf01.sfo.rainpole.io -user admin@local -pass VMw@re1!VMw@re1! -domain sfo-m01 -unmanagedEdgeNode sfo-edg01m -unmanagedEdgeNodePass VMw@re1!VMw@re1!

This example retrieves the password complexity policy for an NSX Edge node that is not managed by SDDC Manager.
