| Password rules description | The description displayed explaining the password rules to the user on the set password. |
Note: If you change the 'Maximum password age' expiry from zero to another value, all users affected by that password policy will have their ‘last password reset date’ set to today. This means that by enabling this feature, user’s passwords will not immediately expire. Changing it from a non-zero value, will not affect the 'last password reset date'.
