Configure Master Secret for Type 6 and implications

Hi, 

If I enable master-key using key config-key password-encryption to encrypt passwords as Type6 for the credentials, will the existing Type 7 and other passwords also get encrypted with the master-key?

 

If yes, suppose I have Type 7 key under the tacacs configuration (or any type 7 key or other keys for that matter), will there be any impact to the communication with tacacs since the password is now encrypted with master-key? Or when communicating, the type 7 key is decrypted by the router?

 

I am trying to set up a voice class tenant username and password as part of my CUBE configuration and it is prompting me to convert the password to Type 6, hence the question. My IOS is 17.3.4a.

 

Thanks and regards,

Libin Benedict
