allow-non-admin-users Allows nonadministrative users to gain SSH access to the chosen device
(or device group). By default, this option is disabled.
Note Nonadministrative users are nonsuperuser administrators. All
nonsuperuser administrators have restricted access to a WAAS
device because their login accounts have a privilege level of 0.
Superuser administrators have full access to a WAAS device
because their login accounts have the highest level of privileges,
a privilege level of 15.

password-guesses
number
Specifies the maximum number of allowable password guesses per
connection (1–99). The default is 3.

active during the negotiation (authentication) phase between the client
and server before it times out. The SSH login grace time value in seconds
is 1–99999. The default is 300.
If you have established an SSH connection to the WAAS device but have
not entered the username when prompted at the login prompt, the
connection will be terminated by the WAAS device if the grace period
expires even after a successful login.
