Exam 200-301 topic 1 question 980 discussion

username CCUser secret NA!2Sce creates a username (CCUser) and encrypts the password (NA!2Sce) using MD5 encryption. The secret keyword ensures that the password is securely hashed, which satisfies the requirement to encrypt the user password.

C é a correcta

C is correct i think the password given is a typo, however i must to enter "secret" command since the question says "encrypt the password".

C is correct because the question doesnt mention privilege levels and also the service password-encryption is a weak form of encryption; Cisco recommends us to use the strongest encryption available.....enable secret

I've tested it in packet tracer, and indeed the password NA!2$cc doesn't have to be a 'secret'. service password-encryption ecrypts the password even if 'username CCUser privilege 10 password NA!2$cc ' is inputted after it 1)service password-encryption 2)username CCUser privilege 10 password NA!$cc 3) show run | include password -> username CCUser privilege 10 password 7 080F6D0F4D1A06

A is the only one that comes near being right, C has a password typo in it. service-password encryption is already configured so no need for a secret or whatever. simple and plain answer for stupid Cisco questions that love to see you fail so they can keep making money out of this shit.

I go with A. The service-password encryption command is already set, option C has typo.

A request was made to encrypt the password, but both the "#password" and "#secret" commands fulfill this request, since the "#service password-encryption" command is enabled. The difference is that other commands include privilege (authorization) levels, and this was not requested. Letter C is correct, as it meets all requirements, without exaggeration. The encryption service in this case is just to confuse.

To create the username as CCUser, create the password as NA!2$cc, and encrypt the user password, option C is the correct configuration. Option A only creates the user and sets a plain-text password. Option B sets a privileged level password for enable mode, but it does not create the user or encrypt the password. Option D creates the user and sets a plain-text password but does not encrypt the password. Option C creates the user, sets an encrypted password, and meets all the specified requirements.

C is wrong, because NA!2Sce is not the right password. I think A is right. Although this user password NA!2$cc is not encrypted in Answer A, the service-password encryption command will encrypt it.

Another tricky question with bad wording - IMHO First lets agree that C is not a typo and therefore it's wrong answer. trying to find MIN/MAX solution I go with A. - What do you think ? I hope not to see such Q on exam.

C is correct. The requirements don't ask for privilege access and the secret password is already set.
