Step5 Enter a hostname for the router (this example uses Router).
Configuring global parameters:
Enter host name [Router]: Router
Step6 Enter an enable secret password. This password is encrypted (more secure) and cannot be seen when
viewing the configuration.
The enable secret is a password used to protect access to
privileged EXEC and configuration modes. This password, after
entered, becomes encrypted in the configuration.
Enter enable secret: xxxxxx
Step7 Enter an enable password that is different from the enable secret password. This password is not
encrypted (less secure) and can be seen when viewing the configuration.
The enable password is used when you do not specify an
enable secret password, with some older software versions, and
some boot images.
Enter enable password: xxxxxx
Step8 Enter the virtual terminal password, which prevents unauthenticated access to the router through ports
other than the console port.
The virtual terminal password is used to protect
access to the router over a network interface.
Enter virtual terminal password: xxxxxx
