Password storage enhancement for non-trusted builds.

21.28.m6

First Introduced.

21.28.1

Feature Description

During upgrade or downgrade, it is recommended to use the compatible configuration files to avoid lockout. The configuration files saved from a new non-trusted build will not work on older builds (trusted or regular). The Admin password is stored as one way hash on non-trusted builds.

Customer Impact: If there is any saved configuration using new build there will be a possible impact during downgrade activities.
