nv set system aaa user <user-id> password
Configures a plain text password for the specified user account by prompting you to enter a new password and to confirm the password.
You can also run the nv set system aaa user <user-id> password <plain-text-password> command to specify the plain text password inline. This command bypasses the Enter new password and Confirm password prompts but displays the plain text password as you type it.
NVUE hashes the plain text password and stores the value as a hashed password.
