Note: Make sure to enable Password Encryption to avoid displaying passwords as plain text in
the configuration file.
Note: Be careful who can access configuration files with plain text passwords!
Password Encryption encrypts all passwords in the configuration file. However, if you want to show some
passwords as plain text in the configuration file, select them as below:
• Authentication information configured for Authentication in the SECURITY > AAA > AAA Setup screen
(Method 1/2/3 setting in the Privilege Enable and Login fields).
• Authorization information configured for Authorization in the SECURITY > AAA > AAA Setup screen
(Active/Console/Method setting in the Exec and Dot1x fields).
• Server information configured for Authentication Server in the SECURITY > AAA > RADIUS Server Setup
screen, and for Authentication Server in the SECURITY > AAA > TACACS+ Server Setup screen (Mode/
Timeout fields).
• System account information configured in the Switch (admin, user login name, and password).
• SNMP user account information configured in the SYSTEM > SNMP > SNMP User screen (password for
SNMP user authentication in the Authentication field, and the password for the encryption method for
SNMP communication in the Privacy field).
Note: The passwords will appear as encrypted text when Password Encryption is Active.
