Protecting Access to Privileged EXEC Commands
Use either of these commands with the level option to define a password for a specific privilege level.
After you specify the level and set a password, give the password only to users who need to have access
at this level. Use the privilege level configuration command to specify commands accessible at various
levels.
If you enable the service password-encryption command, the password you enter is encrypted. When
you display it with the more system:running-config command, it displays in encrypted form.
If you specify an encryption type, you must provide an encrypted password that you copy from another
Cisco 7600 series router configuration.
You cannot recover a lost encrypted password. You must clear NVRAM and set a new password. See the
Note
