The
set password-storage
command lets you select a hashing method for passwords stored in the directory.
This command has the following format:
set password-storage = ssha-512 | sha-512 | ssha-1 | sha-1 | crypt | md5 | smd5 | none;
  • ssha-512
    (Default) Hashes the password using the Salted SHA-512 algorithm.
  • sha-512
    Hashes the password using the SHA-512 algorithm.
  • ssha-1
    Hashes the password using the Salted SHA-1 algorithm. This algorithm produces a different hash even for the same clear text password, which is more secure.
  • sha-1
    Hashes the password using the SHA-1 algorithm.
  • crypt
    Hashes the password using the UNIX crypt method.
  • md5
    Hashes the password using the Message Digest algorithm.
  • smd5
    Hashes the password using the Salted Message Digest algorithm.
  • none
    Passwords are not hashed. This should only be used for testing.
