    That question can mean a lot of things. Can you please explain in more detail what you would like to know/understand?

    And for what type of equipment, as 'WLC Aruba' does not exist and could refer to multiple things for that reason?

    When we are do "show mgmt-user" we will see the password : *****, but when we do "encrypt disable we will see the password but it is not plain-text. It's still encrypt. What is the encryption type that the Aruba used to encrypt it?

    I'm not fully sure, but from this document there is an indication that it's a PBKDF2 one-way hash.

    You may contact Aruba Support if you need an authoritative confirmation.
