Chapter 5 Cisco ASR 1001-X Router Power Up and Initial Configuration
Performing the Initial Configuration on the Router
We recommend that you use the enable secret command because it uses an improved encryption
algorithm.

Configuration Guide. Also see the Cisco IOS Password Encryption Facts tech note and the Improving
Security on Cisco Routers tech note.
