Do you mean password types?

 

there are three passwords types:

Clear text: No encryption

type 7: normal encryption (can be decrypt with some tools)

type 5: MD5 encryption (hard to decrypt)

 

example: If you want to configre enable password and you use this command "enable password cisco" The password will be saved in clear text.

If you use the following command: "service password-encryption" the password will be encrypted to type 7

If you use: "enable secret" command, the password will be encrypted to type 5
