ip ospf authentication-key
Configures simple password-based authentication for OSPF.
Synopsis
ip ospf authentication-key {0 password | 2 password | 255 password | password}
no ip ospf authentication-key
Operands
0 password
No encryption. OSPF processes password as a plain text password and
shows the unencrypted password in the show running command output as
follows:
key 0 passwd
2 password
Expects the user to provide the encrypted password, preceded by a dollar
sign ($) sign, and shows the encrypted password in the show running
command output as follows:
key 2 $ci1pVT0=
255 password
Expects the user to provide the encrypted password, and 255 internally
maps to 2. OSPF shows the encrypted password in the show running
command output as follows:
key 2 $ci1pVT0=
password
OSPF processes password as a plain text password. OSPF internally
encrypts this password as if encryption key 2 was specified and shows the
encrypted password in the show running command output as follows:
key 2 $ci1pVT0=
Defaults
No authentication.
Command Modes
Interface subtype configuration mode
Description
Use this command to sets or reset simple password-based authentication on the OSPF interface to

Usage Guidelines
Enter no ip ospf authentication-key to disable OSPF authentication.
Examples
The following command sets authentication only on the OSPF 10-gigabit Ethernet interface
190/0/49. To enter a plain text password called brocade that OSPF will encrypt as if encryption
key 2 was specified:
switch(config)# interface tengigabitethernet 190/0/49
switch(conf-if-te-190/0/49)# ip ospf authentication-key brocade
The following example sets authentication on the OSPF virtual Ethernet (VE) interface 12, with a
plain text password called brocade that OSPF will encrypt as if encryption key 2 was specified:
switch(config)# rbridge-id 178
switch(config-rbridge-id-178)# interface ve 12
switch(config-ve-12)# ip ospf authentication-key brocade
