Examples

The following example shows the membership Element (ASP.NET Settings Schema) configuration element in the system.web section of the application's Web.config file. It specifies that the application use an instance of the SqlMembershipProvider class to provide membership services, and sets the passwordStrengthRegularExpression attribute to a regular expression that validates that the password meets the following criteria:

  • Is greater than seven characters.

  • Contains at least one digit.

  • Contains at least one special (non-alphanumeric) character.

If the password does not meet these criteria, the password is not accepted by the membership provider.

<membership defaultProvider="SqlProvider"  
  userIsOnlineTimeWindow = "20>  
  <providers>  
    <add  
      name="SqlProvider"  
      type="System.Web.Security.SqlMembershipProvider"  
      connectionStringName="SqlServices"  
      requiresQuestionAndAnswer="true"  
      passwordStrengthRegularExpression="@\"(?=.{6,})(?=(.*\d){1,})(?=(.*\W){1,})"  
      />  
  </providers>  
</membership>  

Remarks
