service password-encryption

Use this command to enable password encryption. This is enabled by default. When
password encryption is enabled, the device displays passwords in the running config in
encrypted form instead of in plain text.

Use the no service password-encryption command to stop the device from displaying
newly-entered passwords in encrypted form. This does not change the display of existing
passwords.
