    Hello Alexdbv, 

     

    Welcome to the community! 

     

    I just like to inform you that the enable password is reserved for engineering/support use only. It is also not possible to set enable password on the GUI or using the console, this is normally the case when the enable function is reserved for engineering use only. This is not for end-user usage. 

     

    Thanks,
