Editorial Review

docs/directorymanager/11.1/admincenter/signin.md

• Structure — Line 108: The heading "Login Throttling" uses "Login" while the rest of the document consistently uses "Sign In" (see the "Sign In" and "Sign Out" section headings). Suggested fix: Rename to "Sign-in Throttling."

• Clarity — Line 110: "system user accounts" is undefined and potentially misleading — it is not clear what distinguishes these from other account types, and the phrase adds ambiguity before the scope is clarified by the very next sentence. Suggested fix: Remove the phrase and let the second sentence carry the scope: "To protect against brute-force attacks, Directory Manager enforces login throttling based on the originating IP address. This applies when signing in using the Directory Manager provider."

• Clarity — Lines 112–113: The first two bullets are redundant — the first introduces the 3-attempt threshold as a condition ("before your IP address is locked out"), and the second immediately restates it as a consequence ("After 3 failed attempts, your IP address is blocked"). Suggested fix: Merge into a single bullet: "After 3 consecutive failed sign-in attempts, your IP address is blocked for 5 minutes."

• Clarity — Line 115: "one additional attempt is granted" is passive voice. Suggested fix: "you get one additional attempt" or "Directory Manager grants you one additional attempt."

• Completeness — Lines 108–117 (section): The section does not address what an admin can do if a legitimate user's IP address is locked out before the 5-minute window expires — for example, whether a manual unlock is available or whether trusted IP ranges can be excluded. For IT admins, this is a realistic support scenario. Suggested fix: Add a sentence or note clarifying whether an admin override exists (or confirm that none does and the user must wait out the timeout).
