The administrator can set up the max-login-failures (Number of unsuccessful login attempts allowed before lockout) to a non-zero number. Also, the unlock-timeout can be increased from the default value of 60 seconds. Once the number of failed login attempts is reached, then the user must wait the alotted unlock-timeout period before being allowed to login with the correct credentials. The number of login-failures for each user is currently reset to zero upon a system reboot.
The max-login-failures setting is set back to zero if the system is rebooted.
Rebooting simply eliminates the tally count of login failures for all users.
