	Command Mode: Line Configuration
	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-threshcommand 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.
