What is the best way to configure the Cisco IOS password?

I'm under 15.2 (4) IOS on a router in 1921

What is the best way to set up the password of the router?  I already tried once and managed to block me on another switch.  I would use the most secure method that encrypts the password.

Current config:

username admin privilege 15 password 0 cisco123

Hey Kevin,

Use the secret keyword instead of the password for the password more secure and encrypted.

The syntax that you are using will display the password in clear text.

R1 (config) #username, 0 privilege 15 password test
R1 (config) #exi
R1 #sh runn
* 00:00:25.523 Mar 1: % SYS-5-CONFIG_I: configured from console by console
R1 #sh runn | in test
username password 0 privilege 15 test
R1 #.

If you use the keyword secret then it will get encrypted.

R1 #sh runn | in test1
username privilege 15 secret 5 test1 $1$ PV6g$ sGMYxxmW8hD9Cdy7TsmHF0
R1 #.

  • ESXI hosts 5-2 and the best way to configure vSwitch and Nic redundancy

    Hi all

    Could someone help me find the best way to configure the vNetwork on 2 5 ESXI host for redundancy.  Once I managed to correctly configure the 2 hosts I will seek to use the same installation process for 6 guests.  3 sites with 2 hosts on each site managed all of vCentre Server

    I have 2 DL380 G7 servers 5 ESXI installed on a class 10, 8 GB SD card, I'm looking to install VSA on the 2 hosts on each server with 4 TB of internal storage (8 * 600 GB 10 k SAS).  Each server has a gigabit integrated 4-port NIC and I installed a 2nd NIC gigabit PCIe 4 ports, I also x 2 16 switches of port with Layer 3 routing.  I use vSphere 5 Standard acceleration Kit I am looking to use vCentre server for managing, vMotion for maintenance, HA for the failover and VM 10/15 (vCentre Server Std, DB SQL to vCentre Server, Exchange 2010, SQL Server 2008 R2, IIS Intranet, Helpdesk, 1 DC, 2 Domain Controller, AV Server, WSUS, SCCM Server, and Terminal Server server).

    What would be the best way to install and configure the network for performance and redundancy and am I missing something?

    My thoughts are, Teaming: -.

    vCenter - vswitch0 - port1 on NIC1 and port1 on NIC 2 - port1 on NIC1 to physical switch 1 - port1 on NIC2 to physical switch 2

    vMotion - vswitch1 - port2 on NIC1 and port2on NIC 2 - port2 on NIC1 to physical switch 1 - port2 on NIC2 to physical switch 2

    HA - vswitch3 - port3 on NIC1 and port3on NIC 2 - port3 on NIC1 physics 1 - port3 on NIC2 to physical switch 2 switch

    VM - vswitch4 - port4 on NIC1 and port4on NIC 2 - port4 on NIC1 to physical switch 1 - port4 on NIC2 to physical switch 2

    or do I need an additional NIC on each server to hit the VM 12-6 VM for 2 ports on 2 NETWORK interface card, or maybe something else I missed?

    Thank you

    In your case, to keep it simple and what I can say here is what would be my recommendation:

    3 standard vSwitches

    vSwitch0:

    • Management - vmnic0, vmnic2

    vSwitch1:

    • vMotion - vmnic1, vmnic3

    vSwitch2:

    • VM network - vmnic4, vmnic5, vmnic6, vmnic7

    The only reason why that I didn't split the VM in other network adapters shipped is because the difference in the types of the DL380 adapter shipped and the PCIe quad.

  • Best way to configure MySQL connection scripts for hosts the remote and

    I'm curious to know if there is an effective way to do it.  I have my local MAMP server test, then a remote server, both with MySQL.  Pages requiring PHP and databases at the start with a link to my login script.  However, the connection to my local details vary my remote servers.  I have two login scripts and need to change the link of each page when I download, or have a login script and change it directly whenever I'm working between the two.

    How will people work effectively in environments the and remote?

    The login script does not have to be in your PHP pages. Not good security. It should be above the root of the Web site, where it is not accessible via http. The name of the file containing the script of the same for the remote and local, even if the content is different.

    Then your PHP pages call a file with the same name and you don't need to change anything.

    require_once '... /... / / here. Connection.php';

    Also note that the file name begins with a period that allows to hide.

  • Best way to configure Photoshop workflow settings when source photos are taken in AdobeRGB, edited from a wide and output range in sRGB?

    Be able to quickly produce finished photographs is of importance with the majority of my photography work. That's why I pull, process and deliver JPEGs. There is no advantage to my clients to my shooting RAW for this time sensitive workflows. I won't be able to accommodate any possible future uses of the photos, so I shoot using the Adobe RGB color space. The output of my clients are JPEG images for use on the Web, so of sRGB. Currently, I used a screen wide gamut (NEC PA302W) with a 24-bit graphics card. (I plan on upgrading to a 30-bit card in the future).

    I noticed that in Internet Explorer, the reds in my finished photos are too intense on my screen. My photos look good in other web browsers on my screen. This situation worries me because I don't know exactly why it's happening since my pictures have embedded sRBG color profile and IE supports embedded color profiles. If anything, I think that the reds would be too intense in other applications that do not support embedded color profiles.

    Please let me know if my work flow can be improved outside shooting RAW and use a 30-bit screen:

    1. Take JPEG pictures in Adobe RGB color space
    2. Edit photos in Photoshop using range wide screen, 24-bit
    3. Color settings: colors of the monitor (Monitor RGB - PA302W, calibrated)
    4. Save for Web, convert to JPEG, incorporate the sRGB color profile

    When you work in Photoshop the reds appear very well. When registering for the Web and previewing "Color Monitor" the reds are intense, when previewing 'Internet Standard RGB (No. Color Management)' the reds appear very well. The final appearance of fine recorded images with the exception of when displayed in Internet Explorer, which supports embedded color profiles - color management.

    Shooting JPEG can certainly be beneficial for the size and speed, although with improvements in conversion raw in a few years it becomes harder to justify.  But if you expose just conversions in camera can be very beautiful.  The camera manufacturers do a decent job in their chips.

    Your sounds of workflow practices, but one thing you know may not be not is IE use NOT your monitor profile, so what you see in Internet Explorer is incorrect to 100% of the time.  He only reads the profile of your image.

    In other words, Internet Explorer is not properly managed by color, unless you have a monitor set to display accurately in the profile sRGB IEC61966 - 2.1.  Microsoft seems to have no intention to fix it either, which is a shame.

    I suggest to view your images in Firefox or Safari, who read your color monitor profile as well as the profile of the image.  Firefox can even be configured to display the elements of the web page in a mode of color management.

  • Satellite L40-A993 - what is the Toshiba BIOS password?

    Yesterday, I left my laptop in mode 'sleep' after work. When I started today morning, he prayed for the password. I never set a password for BIOS and never changed no settings. Currently, its not booting.

    Just after ignition, screen opens with "Enter password".
    I tried to check online, but I got no idea. Can anyone suggest how to fix it?

    Hello Abreu

    AFAIK the system settings like BIOS password cannot be addressed only and configuration of the password must be entered twice (password confirmation).
    Has anyone access your machine?

    I'm afraid that someone put the password on your computer without your knowledge.

  • What is the minimum iOS for apple music

    Hi all

    My first post so be gentle please?

    I want to buy an iPod for my shop, so I can use my music Apple streaming account.

    I don't want to do anything else with this iPod (so I have no need of incredible cameras, loads of applications etc) and it will be only each being connected to a stereo system that plays music to my clients via the speakers.

    So, I'm trying to find an old/flea market/pre-loved iPod that can do. But I have no idea who or what iOS there need to be pre-installed (or expandable to?) to achieve this?

    Thanks for the advice in advance.

    iOS 8.4. This requires a fifth generation or more recent iPod touch.

  • What is the function of password HARD drive physically?

    Acer Aspire E3

    I put a password on the HARD drive in the BIOS, and I see that it is opposed to access F12 boot without the password menu, thus preventing boot from somwething like a Linux Live CD (good!).

    My question is, in addition to password lock the normal startup process and the F12 function, the drive password HARD does nothing else, as for example the encryption of disk?

    Nope no encryption with just a HARD drive password.

    what you have found what is a HARD drive password, do nothing else.

  • what replaces the Cisco Spectrum Expert Wi - Fi

    It seems that this product has been discontinued?

    What do people use out there with similar functionality?

    I've never used this product allegedly reading was friendly, so you didn't have to be an engineer RF to understand and put to good use.

    If my client has finally decided to undertake a mission to search for sources of interference, what do you recommend using mere mortals?

    What engineers use?

    Thank you.

    This is not the end of life... It's just a change of product number:

    Cisco® Announces a change in the product reference numbers for the Spectrum Expert for Wi - Fi, card Cardbus. It is a product part number change single ad. Customers will experience no change in functionality when you use the new product ID.

    Yes, it is as a hardware (previously called cognio cardbus) and combination of software (cisco spectrum expert software). After the acquisition of Cisco of Cognio, it is now called just Cisco spectrum expert (with the mention of "cognio").

    Cisco has also incorporated this same functionality to its 3500 Series (called cleanair technology) last access points, so you can have the same GUI of the expert of the spectrum in the toilet if you have 3500 AP series without having to spend a few dollars and material additional to see interference etc.. Every 3500 AP in the law network autonomous "spectrum analyzers" and you get all these features with only the cost of AP!
