User Manual

[Description]
Enables password encryption.
If this is enabled, the password entered by the password command, the enable password command, and the username
command are saved in the configuration in an encrypted form.
If this command is executed with the "no" syntax, password encryption is disabled, and the password entered by the password
command, the enable password command, and the username command are saved in the configuration as plaintext.
[Note]
If password encryption is changed from disabled to enabled, previously-entered passwords are converted from plaintext to an
encrypted form; however if it is changed from enabled to disabled, previously-encrypted passwords in a configuration file do
not return to plaintext.
[Example]
Enables password encryption.
SWR2310(config)#password-encryption enable
