in reality the question should be about hashing the password.... Anyway: R1(config)#enable secret ? 0 Specifies an UNENCRYPTED password will follow 5 Specifies a MD5 HASHED secret will follow 8 Specifies a PBKDF2 HASHED secret will follow 9 Specifies a SCRYPT HASHED secret will follow LINE The UNENCRYPTED (cleartext) 'enable' secret If we see the output the only valid option is md5.
