-\item \textit{Encryption cost for bcrypt} (positive integer). Starting with 2.11.2,
-bcrypt is used to encrypt the password for an internally authenticated user.
-The complexity of the encryption is determined by the bcrypt cost value. A higher
-value means more complexity (and more time to validate a user's password). The
-cost needs to be a positive integer. If no value is set in a domain, a default
-of 10 will be used.
-\item \textit{Check bcrypt cost if authenticated}. When an internally authenticated user
-logins and the credentials are validated, the bcrypt cost used for the original
-encryption can be compared with the current domain default. If the cost for
-the stored encryption is less than the current domain setting, there are two
-options - either allow login and update the stored encryption using the higher cost,
-or disallow login. The default is not to compare the original cost with the
-current domain setting.
-\item \textit{Existing crypt-based switched to bcrypt if authenticated}. When an internally
-authenticated user logs-in and the credentials are validated, if the stored
-credentials are currently encrypted with crypt, there is an option to update
-the stored encryption to use bcrypt, with or without backing-up the existing passwd
-file to a passwd.bak file. The default is not to update the stored passwd file,
-so existing users who have crypt-based stored passwords will continue to do so
-until such time as they change their password.
