32 | <para><filename>systemd-cryptsetup@.service</filename> is a | |
33 | service responsible for setting up encrypted block devices. It is | |
34 | instantiated for each device that requires decryption for | |
35 | access.</para> | |
36 | ||
37 | <para><filename>systemd-cryptsetup@.service</filename> will ask | |
38 | for hard disk passwords via the <ulink | |
39 | url="https://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/systemd/PasswordAgents"> | |
40 | password agent logic</ulink>, in order to query the user for the | |
41 | password using the right mechanism at boot and during | |
42 | runtime.</para> | |
