Configuring the Enable Password
Access EXEC Privilege mode using the enable command. EXEC Privilege
mode is unrestricted by default. As a basic security measure, configure a
password. There are two types of enable passwords:
•
enable password — stores the password in the running/startup configuration
using a data encryption standard (DES)-encryption method.
•
enable secret — stores the password in the running/startup configuration
using a stronger, MD5-encryption method.
Dell Networking recommends using the enable secret password.
