Hi,
Which model switch is it? Was the password created on an older version of the OS?

any device of 10.5.2.0 version have the same issue.
(s4048, s3048, s4148)
whenever I make a username, before upgrade or after, have the same issue.
thanks.

Did it do it on the previous firmware version? Can you private message me a service tag of one of the switches? It may be something that will need to be fixed in a future update.

you can test with any device of 10.5.2.0 version.
I have 15+ 10.5.2.0 device(4 kind of), all of them have same issue.
in 10.5.1.4(1 before of newest version), encrypted password is shown normally, from 10.5.2.0 , password is shown as **** not encrypted password.
case 1) device 10.5.1.4 version used → upgrade on CLI → password changed encrypted words to **** in show running-config → make a new username → password is shown as ****
case 2) delete OS on ONIE → install 10.5.2.0 on ONIE → make a new username → password is shown as **** (default username admin's password is also shown as ****)
