Configuration - Serial Interface Mode
ip ospf authentication
Use the Serial Interface ip ospf authentication command to enable the authentication method (either
message-digest or simple authentication) for this serial interface. To remove the authentication type for
this interface set the parameter to null or see no ip ospf authentication command on page 13-15.
Note: If an optional parameter is not entered, the authentication method of simple authentication is
applied to the interface.
Syntax:
(config-int-ser-{ n})# ip ospf authentication
[message-digest|null]
Example:
(config-int-ser-1)# ip ospf authentication message-digest
Note: The authentication key must be defined before this command is implemented.
Therefore if setting simple authentication:
Example:
ip ospf authentication-key pass777
ip ospf authentication
Therefore if setting message-digest:
Example:
ip ospf message-digest-key 1 md5 pass777
ip ospf authentication message-digest
