If your current config looks like this:

enable
configure terminal
hostname Lab-Whatever
enable password cisco
enable secret class

you'd then simply add

service password-encryption

Then, when you look at your config (show run), you'd see:

Current configuration:
!
version (whatever version)
service password-encryption
!
hostname Lab-Whatever
!
enable secret 5 $7$kLH9$AA8J7fx1Ajq4.YigDEJXJ/
enable password 7 05085604131A2555

Or something like this.
