tac_plus-ng supports Cisco Type 6 encryption for passwords and keys (Cisco Type 7 is supported too, but that's merely obfuscation).

    type6-key = demoDemoDemo
    device ... {
        # key = demo
        key = 6 'F]V_hCNPYPSKdi^[WG[M]\AWAAB'
    }
    user ... {
        password login = 6 'F]V_hCNPYPSKdi^[WG[M]\AWAAB'
    }

The master key can be specified at host or global level.
