Hi!

While configuring two routers (one 2500 and one 1601, both with 
bri-interface) too call each
other over isdn I discovered something strange.

(1600 ios v11.2)
When I try to set username and password for the connection I, as usual,
use the command

conf t
username cisco2500 password 0 cisco
(0 with the unencrypted_pass)

The router takes the unencrypted pass and encrypts it, the conf
is now : username cisco2500 password 7 030752180500.

But by accident I happened to use

conf t
username cisco2500 password 7 cisco
(7 but with the unencrypted_pass)

The config says: username cisco2500 password 7 cisco
-uh?

(2500)
When I try do to the same on the 2500 instead it complaints and
says that cisco is a forbidden encrypted pass i.e. not 
encrypted...

Shouldn't the 1600 respond in the same maner?
