Configure the Enable Password

The EXEC Privilege mode is accessed by the enable command. Configure a
password as a basic security measure. When using a console connection, EXEC
Privilege mode is unrestricted by default; it cannot be reached by a VTY
connection if no password is configured. There are two types of enable
passwords:
• enable password stores the password in the running/startup configuration
using a DES encryption method.
• enable secret is stored in the running/startup configuration by using a
stronger, MD5 encryption method.
Dell Force10 recommends using the enable secret password.
