Which password types are encrypted?

Question:
Which password types are encrypted?

• SSH
• Telnet
• enable secret
• enable password

Explanation: The “enable secret” password is always encrypted (independent of the “service password-encryption” command) using MD5 hash algorithm.

Note: The “enable password” does not encrypt the password and can be view in clear text in the running-config. In order to encrypt the “enable password”, use the “service password-encryption” command. In general, don’t use enable password, use enable secret instead.
