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 administrator@vsphere.local -pass 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 administrator@vsphere.local -pass 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 administrator@vsphere.local -pass 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 administrator@vsphere.local -pass 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.
