Configuring enable password

Ken Reilly

I am getting an error: % Error in authentication.

I had configured a 9200 - I am a bit of a rookie. I configured the enable secret and was trying to set up Radius authentication....which I believe is working somewhat. When I set the enable secret I did it wrong, so I went back in and entered conf t and no enable secret.

I need to correct enable password..

Thanks in advance

The SW accpet only one enable password (without tacacs)

So add 

enable secret <new password >

This will override old one.

I cannot get into privileged mode to configure the terminal

I remember now one issue I see before' it was same enable password wrong' if you dont copy run to startup then you can reload SW and access without password.

I prefer password recovery always.
