Explanation
When plain text passwords are set in the configuration they are converted to encrypted
password strings. When the show or save command is executed, encrypted passwords
are displayed or stored with the word "encrypted" appended.
This command configures the format in which encrypted password strings are shown and
stored. This setting applies to all passwords in the configuration.
This command takes effect immediately upon configuration.
If the Common option is set, password strings will be encrypted in the same common
password format for all devices. If a device is replaced due to failure or other
circumstances, a configuration that has been saved using the common password format
can be restored to the new device after replacement. While the common option is in
effect, passwords may be set in plain text or in the common password format. Passwords
may not be set in a device-specific format.
If the unique option is set, encrypted password strings will be in a device-specific
password format, unique to each device. A configuration shown or stored using a device-
specific password format can only be set or restored to that specific device. If the device
is replaced due to failure or other circumstances, the configuration saved in the device-
specific password format cannot be restored, so please be sure to reset the new device
with plain text passwords after replacement. While the unique option is in effect,
passwords may be set in plain text, the common password format, or the device-specific
password format displayed on the device.
If the unique option is set on devices implementing Trusted Platform Module (TPM), the
device-specific password format will use the TPM chip. In addition, when the unique
option is set, a check is run to see if the TPM chip is working properly, and if a hardware
error is detected the message below is output and the option is set to common.

Caution
If set to unique, this setting cannot be re-set to common or canceled. If you wish to reset
this setting to common, run the reset clear command to restore to factory settings, then
re-set the configuration.
When the unique option has been set, all preexisting passwords will be converted to the
device-specific password format, displayed and saved.
