Guidelines

The passphrase command sets the passphrase that obfuscates passwords in the domain. This command is relevant when the password-treatment command is set to masked.

Based on the platform, the default configuration is different.

Physical appliances and VMware: By default, no password treatment is applied. Without password treatment, no passwords are emitted, stored in the persisted configuration for a domain, and available in an export package.
Docker and Linux: By default, password treatment is masked and uses a-sample-passphrase as the passphrase. With password treatment set to masked, passwords are emitted, stored in the persisted configuration for a domain, or available in an export package.

Example

Obfuscates passwords in the domain with the my_domain_passphrase passphrase.

# password-treatment masked
# passphrase my_domain_passphrase
