Configure the Enable Password
Access the EXEC Privilege mode using the enable command. The EXEC Privilege mode is unrestricted
by default. Configure a password as a basic security measure. There are two types of
enable passwords:
•
enable password stores the password in the running/startup configuration using a DES encryption
method.
•
enable secret is stored in the running/startup configuration in using a stronger, MD5 encryption
method.
Force10 recommends using the
enable secret password.
To configure an enable password:
Configuration File Management
Files can be stored on and accessed from various storage media. Rename, delete, and copy files on the
system from the EXEC Privilege mode.
Task Command Syntax Command Mode
Create a password to

mode.
enable [password | secret]
[level level] [encryption-type]
password
level is the privilege level, is 15 by default, and is not required.
encryption-type specifies how you are inputting the password,
is 0 by default, and is not required.
• 0 is for inputting the password in clear text.
• 7 is for inputting a password that is already encrypted using
a DES hash. Obtain the encrypted password from the
configuration file of another Force10 system.
• 5 is for inputting a password that is already encrypted using
an MD5 hash. Obtain the encrypted password from the
configuration file of another Force10 system.
