Command Usage
• When a connection is started on a line with password protection, the
system prompts for the password. If you enter the correct password,
the system shows a prompt. You can use the
password-thresh
command to set the number of times a user can enter an incorrect
password before the system terminates the line connection and returns
the terminal to the idle state.
• The encrypted password is required for compatibility with legacy
password settings (i.e., plain text or encrypted) when reading the
configuration file during system bootup or when downloading the
configuration file from a TFTP server. There is no need for you to
manually configure encrypted passwords.
