Step 12
Scan the configuration file display looking for the passwords; the enable passwords are usually near the
beginning of the file, and the console login or user EXEC password is near the end. The passwords
displayed will appear similar to the following:
enable secret 5 $1$ORPP$s9syZt4uKn3SnpuLDrhuei
enable password 23skiddoo
.
.
line con 0
password onramp
Note
The enable secret password is encrypted and cannot be recovered; it must be replaced. The enable and
console passwords can be encrypted text or clear text.
Proceed to the next step to replace an enable secret, console login, or enable password. If there is no
enable secret password, note the enable and console login passwords if they are not encrypted and
proceed to
Step 17
