Here are the technical steps to configure complexity management settings in vCenter:
1. Log in to your vCenter Server using the vSphere Web Client as an administrator.
1. Navigate to the vCenter Server settings by clicking on the gear icon in the top right corner and selecting “Settings.”
1. Click on the “Authentication Services” tab and select “Edit” to change the settings.
1. Scroll down to the “Password policy” section and select “Edit.”
1. You will see various complexity settings that you can configure, such as password length, usage of uppercase and lowercase characters, numbers, and symbols.
1. Choose the complexity settings that you want to enforce for your vCenter Server’s passwords.
1. Click “Save” to save your changes to the password policy settings.
1. You may need to restart your vCenter Server services for the changes to take effect.
1. Once the new password policy settings are in place, all users will need to create new passwords that conform to the new complexity requirements.
1. You can also enforce complexity settings on individual users by navigating to the “Users” tab and selecting a user, then clicking “Edit” and scrolling down to the “Password” section to set their own password complexity requirements.
That’s a technical overview of how to configure complexity management settings in vCenter.
