Usage Guidelines The clear users administrative command clears the connections for all administrative users who are
authenticated through a remote login service, such as TACACS. This command does not affect an
administrative user who is authenticated through the local database. Only locally authenticated
administrative users can run this command.
The clear users locked-out command unlocks user accounts that have been locked out. If a strong
password policy is enabled (see the (config) authentication strict-password-policy command) a user
account will be locked out if the user fails three consecutive login attempts. (This restriction does not
apply to the admin account.)
Examples The following example shows how to clear the connections of all authenticated users:
