is used for all incoming CHAP challenges on the E_Port and N_Port
interfaces.
After issuing this command, users are directed to a password prompt
where the actual 16-byte secret is entered. After entering the new
secret, it must be confirmed in the following prompt. After
confirmation, users are returned to the initial prompt that the
command was executed from.
No characters will be echoed back to the screen when entering a
password, or when confirming a password. See Passwords and Secrets
on page 1-16 for valid characters.
