Using the AES encryption password.

These are the instructions from the ConfGen Help screen:

To use AES encryption you have to do the following steps:
– Enable AdminMode with Admin Name and Password for AES encryption
– Boot the ThinOS Thin Client and open AdminMode with these credentials
– You will now see a new button called “AES Encryption”. Click it.
– Enter your to-be-encrypted string in this dialog
– Copy the generated encrypted string and either write it down or paste it in any open remote session
– You can use this string now for all purposes like, AdminMode, User, Passwords, VNC, 802.1x, etc.

Does this mean the string can be used in DHCP and AD to authenticate the ftp user in DHCP.

How else can the user and encrypted string be used?    A specific example would be great?

Thanks to all.
