Password And Secret; Additional Reference; Starting Point - Cisco 700 Series Configuration Manual

Password and Secret

There are several types of authentication, such as Password Authentication Protocol (PAP)
and Challenge Handshake Authentication Protocol (CHAP). To avoid confusion, the PAP
password is referred to as password, and the CHAP secret password is referred to as secret.
The PAP password is plain text. The CHAP secret is encrypted.

Command Reference publication also contains advanced configuration examples.

Use the set default command as follows to be sure that you begin with all default
values when configuring your router:
> set def
System-level parameters and the parameters in the permanent profiles are set to
their default values. Existing user-defined profiles are deleted and the router

no spaces or dashes) to set the ISDN directory numbers.
