Some time ago there was one of my blog visitors who ask how to Secure Router with Cisco Packet Tracer Password ..?

Securing Router Password is indeed very necessary by the network administrator, it is intended that no unauthorized person can enter the router configuration, because it might mess up the configuration that has been built so that all the systems we have set to be messy and not working properly.

To complicate unauthorized people change and disruptive Router configuration, the router needs to be protected with a password (password). The password for the console if the password is enabled on the console, the user can not just get access to the router through the console without specifying password console first.

Ok gays immediately wrote we practice well ....

First open beforehand Tools Cisco Packet Tracer

Click 2 times on the Router that will be in the password and enter the CLI menu

Ok now we are setting the router typing commands below:

Continue with configuration dialog? [Yes / no]: no

Press RETURN to get started!

Router> enable

Router # configure terminal

Enter configuration commands, one per line. End with CNTL / Z.

Router (config) # line console 0

Router (config-line) # login

% Login disabled on line 0, until 'password' is set

Router (config-line) # password terserahkalian

Router (config-line) # exit

Router (config) # exit

% SYS-5-CONFIG_I: Configured from console by console

Router # exit

Up there we have managed to secure the router with a password if you want to try whether we have succeeded or not setting the router hit enter at the CLI will display as shown below:

to be entered on the router then we must include the password which we have previously setting, namely in practice, I set its password is the key terserahkalian.
