A network administrator enters the service password-encryption command into the configuration mode of a router. What does this command accomplish? This command encrypts passwords as they are transmitted across serial WAN links. This command prevents someone from viewing the running configuration passwords. This command enables a strong encryption algorithm for the enable secret password command. This command automatically encrypts passwords in configuration files that are currently stored in NVRAM. This command provides an exclusive encrypted password for external service personnel who are required to do router maintenance.

This command prevents someone from viewing the running configuration passwords.
