Hmm, I did not see that feature in real life yet. So, after a few attempts
Login will be locked automatically , how do you unlock it?

Same as in AD. Either wait for the lockout duration or have an admin unlock
the account for you. Once the AD account is unlocked you can authenticate to
SQL Server.

Uri,
From the SSMS Login Properties / Status tab, click the Enabled radio button.
From TSQL: ALTER LOGIN LoginName ENABLE

Also, according to Windows policy settings, when the lockout time period
elapses it will be automatically enabled.
