Step 6 At this point, the Network Administrator should record passwords in a secure location.

To verify that you configured your passwords correctly:

Step 1 Initiate a new telnet connection, while maintaining the one you used to set the password.

This is needed so that if the verification fails, you would still have admin level

authorization in order to re-enter the password.

Step 2 At the SCE 1000# prompt, do one of the following, according to the password level you

are checking:

• Type enable.

• Type enable 15. (Root level)

Step 3 Press Enter.

Step 4 Type your new password and press Enter.

If your new password has been entered successfully, then the SCE 1000 Admin or Root

prompt appears.

If you enter an incorrect password , the following error message appears: “Error—The

supplied password is simply not right.”

Step 5 Repeat steps 1 to 3 to check additional passwords.

The encryption feature will encrypt the passwords in the platform configuration files.

Encryption

Once the encryption feature is activated, passwords entered into the system are encrypted to the

startup configuration file the next time the configuration is saved. When encryption feature is

turned off, passwords previously encrypted to the startup configuration file are not deciphered.

By default, the password encryption feature is turned off.

To enable password encryption:

Step 1 From the SCE 1000(config)# prompt, type service password encryption.

Password encryption is enabled.
