No one: Cisco: A guy is doing something, what are the exact steps and order?

Doesn't seem correct... it should be enable secret instead of service password encryption.

enable secret cisco123 secret is for hashing not for encryption service password-encryption this command is for encryption the answer is not include enable secret

What is a 'local user database' on a router? There is no mention of this term in the official certification guide. Google <"local user database" site:cisco.com> does not give any results about a router. It's mentioned in some articles related to security appliances but not about routers. You Cisco company don't even use this term. How can you expect us to know what it is? Do you make these questions just in order to fail people and charge them cert fee again and again?

given answers are correct encrypted password for the (enable) command must be enable secret

answers are correct

TRICKY, but the answers are correct.

Unless the user database includes user name and pwd , Enable secret is correct.

bad qn

# enable password - it will enables a password that based on a clear text, unlike, # enable secret - it will enables a password and password encryption that based on the md5 hashing algorithm. This is is a most recommended command to supply while enabling a password to any cisco network devices. https://community.cisco.com/t5/network-security/enable-password-and-enable-secret/td-p/1931118

The local user account only gets you access to the router, you still need a seperate password for the enable command. Answer is enable secret

Enable, Config T, Enable Secret, Exit. Service Password-Encryption encrypts plain text.

you need the 4 steps plus the enable secret right before exit (and exit is optional)

ENABLE - CONF T - ENABLE SECRET ..... - EXIT

According to the CCNA Routing and Switching Portable Command Guide (Pg. 99, 237-238) book it shows the following: Password Encryption: R1(Config)#: service password-encryption R1(Config)#: enable password cisco R1(Config)#: line console 0 R1(Config)#: password cisco R1(Config)#: no service password-encryption

Here we are talking bout encrypted password for enable mode so it should be enable secret command.

'local user database has already been configured" Correct answer
