Current version : 9.1.1

Call me silly but it seems that I have forgotten whether I applied encryption on my volumes or not.
During bootup, there are message about software encyption but I really don't remember typing any kind of passphrases during the pool creation.
Code:
Feb  6 09:32:40 freenas kernel: ZFS filesystem version: 5
Feb  6 09:32:40 freenas kernel: ZFS storage pool version: features support (5000)
Feb  6 09:32:40 freenas kernel: GEOM_RAID5: Module loaded, version 1.1.20110927.40 (rev 00ce00e5abb4)
Feb  6 09:32:40 freenas kernel: GEOM_ELI: Device ada0p1.eli created.
Feb  6 09:32:40 freenas kernel: GEOM_ELI: Encryption: AES-XTS 256
Feb  6 09:32:40 freenas kernel: GEOM_ELI:     Crypto: software

Also, whenever I rebooted (usually 2 times a month), there are no prompts or anything that requires me to type in passphares. I'm assuming that I'm not using any kind of encryption, but these log messages bothers me. If I want to migrate to newer FREENAS I must have the encryption key backup and the passphrases right ?

Are my volumes encrypted ?
Also, how to get encryption key backup without the webGUI ? due to bad NIC, I cannot access volume details through webGUI. Console and SSH works fine.

What you are seeing is the encrypted swap partition. Nothing to worry about.
