Restriction of Consecutive Digits for Passwords (QPWDLMTAJC)

The Restriction of Consecutive Digits for Passwords (QPWDLMTAJC) system value limits the use of numeric characters next to each other (adjacent) in a password.

This value provides additional security by preventing users from using birthdays, telephone numbers, or a sequence of numbers as passwords.
Notes:
  1. This system value is a restricted value. See Security system values for details on how to restrict changes to security system values and a complete list of the restricted system values.
  2. If the QPWDRULES system value specifies any value other than *PWDSYSVAL, this system value cannot be changed and its value will be ignored when new passwords are checked to see if they are formed correctly.
Table 1. Possible values for the QPWDLMTAJC system value:
0 Numeric characters are allowed next to each other in passwords.
1 Numeric characters are not allowed next to each other in passwords.
