Hi

 

I have asked this question from F5 support and Consultants and the basic response has been, LDAP expire and reset is a no go. There is a way to make it work but its a pain to implement and they dont support it. If you have any other way to use non LDAP auth then take it. I toyed with checked the LDAP varible tfor expireaty rto notify the user there password will exopire a week previously but wasnt worth the effort.

 

The APM portal access encryption is a hashed string that doesnt change, I have previously asked F5 and there is no way to amend it. Also becareful becuase certain application that dont see the correct URI will break once you use portal access.
