To place a weak encryption on clear text passwords in your running configuration, you can use the command:

service password-encryption

This command enables the encryption of plaintext passwords in the configuration file, providing a basic level of security. However, it's important to note that this is not strong encryption, and clear text passwords can still be compromised if someone accesses the configuration in the right way.
