Cisco CCNA 200-301 Practice Question
On a Cisco device, configuring a local password with the 'enable password' command stores the password in an encrypted format in the configuration file.
True
False
On a Cisco device, configuring a local password with the 'enable password' command stores the password in an encrypted format in the configuration file.
True
False
This statement is false. When you use the 'enable password' command on a Cisco device, the password is stored in plain text in the configuration file. To secure the password by storing it in an encrypted (hashed) form, you should use the 'enable secret' command instead, which encrypts the password using MD5 hashing. This provides a higher level of security for the privileged EXEC mode access.
