Which password must an engineer use to enter the enable mode?
A.
adminadmin123
B.
default
C.
testing1234
D.
cisco123
The Answer Is:
C
This question includes an explanation.
Explanation:
The enable secret value takes precedence over enable password and line passwords for entering privileged EXEC mode. In the exhibit, the configured enable secret is testing1234, so the engineer must use that password to enter enable mode. The username and line password are relevant to user login and line access, but not preferred over enable secret for privilege escalation. Cisco IOS checks enable secret first because it is stored more securely than the older enable password. If enable secret were absent, enable password could be used; if neither were present, line behavior might affect access depending on the configuration. Here, the answer is unambiguous because enable secret is configured. CCNA 200-301 v1.1 Security Fundamentals expects candidates to understand basic device-access configuration and the priority of enable secret. The verified answer is C, with the option corrected to testing1234 to match the exhibit. Reference: Cisco IOS enable secret and device-access security behavior.
