It appears the Web UI doesn’t allow setting the minimum username length to be equal to the maximum user length, despite the validation message indicating that it should be possible.

I have tried the following:

- Change both values and click **Save**.
- Change only the maximum value, click **Save** , and then try to change only the minimum value and then **Save**.
- Refresh the page and attempt either of the above two methods.
