How to Create Cisco Router Password for Different Modes?

I want to show you in this article basic routing configuration. But before this ı must explain the mod of routing. Now let starting.

There are 3 main modes of routing.  U ser mode, privileged mode, global configuration mode. there are some more modes but all of them are under the global configuration mode.

route> This mode is named user mode. Provides only some basic monitoring commands such as; show version, show flash, show IP interface brief and ping, traceroute.  modifications and configuration are not allowed in this mode.

route> enable

 route#

route# This mode is named privileged mode. İn this mode is passed from the user-mode with the enable command. provide monitoring and some troubleshooting.

router#configure terminal

router(config)# This mode is named global configuration mode. provide all configuration that affects the entire router.

CHANG HOSTNAME:

route>  enable

router#configure terminal

router(config)#Hostname R-1

R-1(config)#

ASSİGNİNG CONSOLE PASSWORD:  This password is for the console connection.

route>  enable

router#configure terminal

Router(config)#line console 0

Router(config-line)#password  CONSOLE                          (LİNE MODE)   

Router (config-line)#login

ENABLE PASSWORD: This is for the enable mode.

route>  enable

router#configure terminal

Router(config)#enable password 1881

ENABLE SECRET PASSWORD: This password is for the enable mode as well but this is invisible. if this is used, the enable password becomes invalid.

SOME USEFUL  COMMANDS:

Router(config-line)#exec-timeout 10 10

This command sets the timeout for the console connection. The first number After the exec-timeout is minute, the second number is the second.

Router(config-line)#logging syncronous

This command blocks console messages that suddenly pop up and interrupt your entries you try to write.

Router(config-if)#description THİS İS MY DESCRİPTİON

All messages are visible except the enable secret password. When someone uses show running-config command on the router.  This command is used to make passwords invisible.
