Question of the Day for the CCNA Security IINS 640-553 Exam

Show Question

Look at the following commands and pick the answers that best represent what is being accomplished:

CiscoISR(config)#line vty 0 4
CiscoISR(config-line)#login
CiscoISR(config-line)#password sanjose

A. In-band users on the 5 default vty line interfaces on a Cisco router will be required to enter the password sanjose before they can access user mode.

B. In-band users on the 5 default vty line interfaces on a Cisco router will be required to enter the password sanjose before they can access enable mode.

C. In-band users on the 5 default vty line interfaces on a Cisco router will be able to login to enable mode with the same password. The password is automatically encrypted.

D. In-band users on the 5 default vty line interfaces on a Cisco router will be unable to login to enable mode without a separate enable password or enable secret.

E. None of the above.

Answers A and D are correct. This password protects the user mode on the router only. Furthermore, a security feature on Cisco routers refuses Telnet or SSH connections to the vtys if an enable password or enable secret has not also (but separately) been set.

Answer B is incorrect per the preceding explanation. Answer C is incorrect because the enable password is set separately, and there is no automatic encryption of these passwords by default.
