Exec Mode Cli Test-Commands; Configuration Mode Cli Test-Commands - Cisco ASR 5500 Administration Manual

System Security
Entering old-password old_password allows you to replace the existing password without being prompted
to enter the old password. If you incorrectly enter the old password or do not enter the old password, an error
message appears: "Failure: Must enter matching old tech-support password to replace existing password".
The Quick Setup Wizard (Exec mode setup command) also prompts for entry of a tech-support test-commands
password. If you have forgotten the old tech-support password, you can run setup directly from the Console
port to enter a new tech-support password.
When a test-commands password is configured, the Global Configuration mode command cli test-commands
[ encrypted ] password password requires the entry of the password keyword. If the encrypted keyword is
specified, the password argument is interpreted as an encrypted string containing the password value. If the
encrypted keyword is not specified, the password argument is interpreted as the actual plain text value
