in cipher text must be a string of 24 or 88 characters, for example, _(TT8F]Y\5SQ=^Q`MAF4<1!!.
Description
Use the password command to configure a password for a local user and specify whether to display the
password in cipher text or plain text.
Use the undo password command to delete the password of a local user.
With no keyword or argument specified, the command prompts you to provide a password, and the
password will be displayed in plain text. This interactive mode is supported only on devices that support
the password control feature. Support for the feature depends on the device model. For more information
about password control commands, see Security Command Reference.
With the cipher keyword specified, a password of up to 16 characters in plain text is encrypted into a
password of 24 characters in cipher text, and a password of 16 to 63 characters in plain text is encrypted
into a password of 88 characters in cipher text. For a password of 24 characters, if the system can
decrypt the password, the system treats it as a password in cipher text. Otherwise, the system treats it as
a password in plain text.
