The password [password] command is used within line configuration mode to set the password required to access a specific line, such as the console line (line console 0). This command defines the password that users must enter when connecting to that line. The enable password [password] and enable secret [password] commands set passwords for privileged EXEC mode access, not for line access. The service password-encryption command encrypts passwords in the device's configuration but does not set any passwords.
