Router: Cisco 2511
Question: I want to change the enable, enable secret, and terminal passwords. I can get to privileged EXEC mode, then into config mode. What to do from here to change the items mentioned above and implement them without having to change or re-enter any other config?

Thanks much for help.

To change the password, you have to put "no" in front of the password that you want to change in the global config mode. I.e. router(conf)#no secret, then type exit, and enter router(conf)#enable secret and new password. Same for enable. Terminal is a little different. You have to say router(conf)#no vty and the number (0 4 would be for all 4 possible connections) Exit out one step and then type router(conf)#line vty 0 4 (cr) login (cr) password (new password).
If you need any additional help, you can email me at r.growcock@kadasystems.com
