    • port is the HTTP port used by Spectrum™ Technology Platform. The default is 8080.
  2. Log in using the admin account.
  3. Under "Domain: com.pb.spectrum.platform.config", click com.pb.spectrum.platform.config:manager=AccountConfigurationManager.
  4. In the updatePasswordPolicy operation, set the enableAdvanceControl option to True.
  5. In the minLength field, enter the minimum password length.
  6. Click Invoke.
  7. Click Return to MBean View to go back to the Account Configuration Manager screen.
