Configuring the Enable Password
Access EXEC Privilege mode using the enable command. EXEC Privilege mode is
unrestricted by default.
As a basic security measure, configure a password. There are two types of enable
passwords:
• enable password — stores the password in the running/startup configuration
using a data encryption standard (DES)-encryption method.
• enable secret — stores the password in the running/startup configuration using a
stronger, MD5-encryption method.
Dell Networking recommends using the enable secret password.
• Create a password to access EXEC Privilege mode.
