Usage
Information
CAUTION: Encrypting passwords with this command does not provide a high level of
security. When the passwords are encrypted, you cannot return them to plain text unless
you re-configure them. To remove an encrypted password, use the no password
password command.
To keep unauthorized people from viewing passwords in the switch configuration file, use the service
password-encryption command. This command encrypts the clear-text passwords created for user
name passwords, authentication key passwords, the privileged command password, and console and
virtual terminal line access passwords.
To view passwords, use the show running-config command.
