Enable Mode (Cisco 2911)

ashleyreed4218

Level 1

Hi!

My engineer onsite can't get into enable mode on his 2911 router. I've seen this before but I can't find out how I fixed it.

He gets an error saying : no password set

Anyone have any suggestions?

Thank you always,

AR

Here is the config:

Router#sh run

you have to set enable password: enable secret 0 strong-password

I do not see either an enable secret configured or an enable password configured. With no password for enable mode he should be able to access privilege mode from the console but not from any other connection (such as telnet).

To fix the problem you need to access the console port, get into enable mode, and configure the enable secret.
