Lockdown Mode

In the Lockdown Mode screen, you can enable Strict Lockdown mode. When enabled, the management console is effectively disabled. A dialog box that cannot be closed is permanently displayed on the management console. This prevents any person from accessing the management console.

To enable Strict Lockdown mode, select Enable and then press Enter.

Be careful about enabling Strict Lockdown mode. Strict Lockdown mode cannot be disabled.
