All you can do is to take many different passwords, hash them and compare the result to your given hash-value. The used hash-algorithm with type 5 is salted md5 which can be computed lightning fast on modern computers. Cisco hash cracker. Although it's also a cryptographic operation, it's not a reversible encryption but a one-way function. If you know that the original password is not too complex and long, it should be possible with the given tools.The triviality in computing md5-based hashes (and also that there can be collisions) make md5-hashed passwords a bad thing and nowadays (at least in newer IOS) pbkdf2 or scrypt is often used.
