OSPFv3 Commands
area authentication
Congures authentication for an OSPFv3 area.
Syntax
area area-id authentication ipsec spi number {MD5 | SHA1} key
Parameters
area area-id — Enter an area ID as a number or IPv6 prex.
ipsec spi number — Enter a unique security policy index (SPI) value (256 to 4294967295).
md5 — Enable MD5 authentication.
sha1 — Enable SHA-1 authentication.
key — Enter the text string used in the authentication type.
Default OSPFv3 area authentication is not congured.
Command Mode ROUTER-OSPFv3
Usage Information
Before you enable IPsec authentication for an OSPFv3 area, you must enable OSPFv3 globally on each router.
All OSPFv3 routers in the area must share the same authentication key to exchange information. Only a non-
encrypted key is supported. For MD5 authentication, the non-encrypted key must be 32 plain hex digits. For
SHA-1 authentication, the non-encrypted key must be 40 hex digits. An encrypted key is not supported.
Example
OS10(config-router-ospfv3-100)# area 1 authentication ipsec spi 400 md5

Supported Releases 10.4.0E(R1) or later
area encryption
Congures encryption for an OSPFv3 area.
Syntax
area area-id encryption ipsec spi number esp encryption-type key
authentication-type key
Parameters
area area-id — Enter an area ID as a number or IPv6 prex.
ipsec spi number — Enter a unique security policy index number (256 to 4294967295).
esp encryption-type — Enter the encryption algorithm used with ESP (3DES, DES, AES-CBC, or
NULL). For AES-CBC, only the AES-128 and AES-192 ciphers are supported.
key — Enter the text string used in the encryption algorithm.
authentication-type — Enter the encryption authentication algorithm to use (MD5 or SHA1).
key — Enter the text string used in the authentication algorithm.
Default OSPFv3 area encryption is not congured.
Command Mode ROUTER-OSPFv3
Usage Information
Before you enable IPsec encryption for an OSPFv3 area, you must enable OSPFv3 globally on each router.
