Anyone know the difference? i know that enable secret overides enable password but why would you need to set password if you already have secret or even have a secret at all?
The enable password is there for backword compatibility and is not usually needed. The enable secret is encrypted but the password can still be broken using readily available tools on the internet. Use "no enable password" to remove it and use service password-encryption to encrypt your line and con passwords.
