Parameter
simple: Specifies to display passwords in simple text.
cipher: Specifies to display passwords in cipher text.
password: Defines a password. When input in simple text, it is a string of 1 to 48
characters, for example, 1234567. When input in cipher text, it is a string of 24 or 64
characters, for example, _(TT8F]Y\5SQ=^Q`MAF4<1!!. Cipher-text password, is
available however only when the cipher keyword is specified.
Description
Use the password command to configure a password for a local user.
Use the undo password command to cancel the password of the local user.
If local-user password-display-mode cipher-force applies, the effort of specifying in
the password command to display passwords in simple text is rendered useless.
 Note:
The ciphertext password set by the password cipher command could be 24 or 64
characters long in V 2.41 RT-0011 or later versions, but it is only 24 characters long in
ealier versions. As this may cause password loss when you downgrade V 2.41
RT-0011 or later versions to an ealier version of V 2.41 RT-0011, you are
recommended to back up your configuration file before doing that.
Related command: display local-user.
