[Lockout Threshold]

If a user fails the user authentication more than the set lockout threshold within three minutes, the login service is stopped. For example, if you set the lockout threshold to five times, the lockout function is enabled and the user is prevented from logging in for the specified period of time when a user fails user authentication five times in three minutes.
