Today's challenge is determining how to use the question mark character "?" in a password on a Cisco router when configuring a key-chain.  Hrm.  Puzzling.

(Key-chain is to be used with EIGRP Authentication, but that makes no difference.)

Do you win a prize?

Here: -

Can contain the question mark (?) character if you precede the question mark with the key combination Crtl-v when you create the password; for example, to create the password abc?123, do the following:

–Enter abc.

–Type Crtl-v.

–Enter ?123.

When the system prompts you to enter the enable password, you need not precede the question mark with the Ctrl-v; you can simply enter abc?123 at the password prompt.

Yeah, I try to avoid using Google in favour of univercd (http://www.cisco.com/univercd/home/home.htm) when solving these things as thats all I'll have access to during my exam.
