ADSelfService Plus self-service password reset configuration: Reset & Unlock tab
Reset & Unlock tab
The Reset & Unlock tab consists of settings related to the self-password reset and account unlock features. Learn how to configure these settings to suit your requirements. Here are the settings under the Reset & Unlock tab:
- Unlock account during password reset: Unlock locked-out accounts when the password reset process is complete.
- Upon password reset, force users to change password at next logon: Force users to change their passwords at the next logon (upon password change).
- SMS/Email auto-generated password to users after identity verification: Send auto-generated passwords to users via SMS or email after successful identity verification.
Note: The passwords are generated according to the custom password policy configured in ADSelfService Plus.
- Allow users to retry reset without going through ID verification again: If the user exits the self-service password reset session without completion, the next time they attempt to reset their password, they will not be asked to authenticate again.
- Enable password strength analyzer: Helps users choose strong passwords by displaying the password strength to users when setting or changing a password
- Prevent a user from using 'Copy & Paste' in the password fields: Prevent users from performing copy-and-paste actions in the password field.
- Show domain display name in the end-user pages: Users will be able to view the domain display name next to the username in pages like password reset, account unlock, and change password.
- Enforce Active Directory password history settings during password reset: Enable users to reset their passwords without having to repeat the identity verification process.
Example: Say during self-password reset, a user enters a password that does not comply with the domain password policy. With this option, the user can reset their password without having to verify their identity again.
