User Guidelines
When the administrator configures a new enable password, this password is
encrypted automatically and saved to the configuration file. No matter how the
password was entered, it appears in the configuration file with the keyword
encrypted and the encrypted value.
If the administrator wants to manually copy a password that was configured on
one switch (switch B) to another switch (switch A), the administrator must add
encrypted in front of this encrypted password when entering the enable
command in switch A. In this way, the two switches will have the same password.
The passwords are encrypted by default. You only are required to use the
encrypted keyword when you are actually entering an encrypted keyword.
Example
The following command sets an unencrypted password for level 15 (it will be
encrypted in the configuration file):
switchxxxxxx(config)# enable password level 15 let-me-in
switchxxxxxx(config)# enable secret level l
