Correct arrangement

enable
configure terminal
enable secret Shf!@4fs
exit

Explanation

The correct sequence begins with 'enable' to enter privileged EXEC mode, followed by 'configure terminal' to enter global configuration mode, then 'enable secret Shf!@4fs' to set the encrypted enable password using the more secure MD5-hashed 'secret' command, and finally 'exit' to leave configuration mode. The 'enable secret' command stores the password in an automatically encrypted (MD5) format in the running configuration, making it the preferred method over 'enable password' for securing privileged access.
