Solution

The command that will prevent all unencrypted passwords from displaying in plain text in a configuration file is:

(config)# service password-encryption

This command encrypts all plaintext passwords in the configuration file. Here's a step-by-step guide on how to use it:

  1. Enter global configuration mode by typing configure terminal or config t in the command line.
  2. Type service password-encryption and press Enter. This command encrypts all current and future passwords.
  3. To save your changes, type end or Ctrl-Z and then type write memory or copy running-config startup-config.

Please note that this command does not provide strong security against attacks. It only provides a basic level of obfuscation. For stronger security, consider using stronger encryption methods or secure protocols that support encryption.
