Defines the number of attempts which a user can try to log onto the system in the time period defined by failedLoginTimePeriod prior to the current time before a trap is generated and sent. When this variable is set to zero, the aixUserLoginFailed trap is disabled. The default is 20 which means that if users attempting and failing to log in 20 times in last time period defined by aixFailedLoginTimePeriod , a trap is generated. These attempts are recorded in /etc/security/failedlogin or /var/adm/wtmp .
