You are configuring your router and type in an Enable password
You are configuring your router and type in an Enable password and an Enable Secret password. Your fellow network technician asks you why you have two passwords set when you only need one. What do you tell him?
-
-
The Enable password is used by low-level applications.
-
If you reverted to an older version of the IOS, it would not understand the Secret password.
-
Both passwords are treated the same.
-
It is a failsafe method of ensuring that people need to type two passwords instead of just one.
-
Answers :
Answer: B.
Explanation - Older versions of the IOS do not support encrypted Privileged mode passwords. By placing an Enable password, you would still have a way to keep people out of Privileged mode if reverting to an older IOS. A is incorrect, as applications do not use Privileged mode passwords to access a Cisco router. C is incorrect, as the router ignores the Enable password after the Enable Secret password is configured. D is incorrect, as you would only type the Enable Secret password to access Privileged mode.
