Password Encryption
Password Encryption Status can be Enabled or Disabled in this window, it is Disabled by default. Password encryption allows the
user to encrypt a password for additional security. Select Enabled to change the password into encrypted form. When password
encryption is Disabled, the password will be in plain text form. However, if the user specifies the password in encrypted form, or
if the password has been converted to encrypted form by the last enable password encryption command, the password will still
be in encrypted form and cannot be reverted back to plaintext form.
To view this window, click Administration > Password Encryption, as shown below:
