Service Manual

authentication-
algorithm
Species the authentication algorithm to use for encryption.
Valid values are MD5 or SHA1.
key-encryption-
type
(OPTIONAL) Species if the authentication key is encrypted.
Valid values: 0 (key is not encrypted) or 7 (key is encrypted).
key
Text string used in authentication.
For MD5 authentication, the key must be 32 hex digits (non-encrypted) or 64 hex
digits (encrypted).
For SHA-1 authentication, the key must be 40 hex digits (non-encrypted) or 80 hex
digits (encrypted).
null
Causes an encryption policy congured for the area to not be inherited on the
interface.
Defaults Not congured.
Command Modes ROUTER OSPFv3
Command History
This guide is platform-specic. For command information about other platforms, refer to the relevant Dell
Networking OS Command Line Reference Guide.
The following is a list of the Dell Networking OS version history for this command.
Version Description
9.8(0.0P5) Introduced on the S4048-ON.
9.8(0.0P2) Introduced on the S3048-ON.
9.2(1.0) Introduced on the Z9500.
9.1.(0.0) Introduced on the S4810 and Z9000.
8.4.2.0 Introduced on the E-Series TeraScale.
8.3.19.0 Introduced on the S4820T.
Usage Information
Before you enable IPsec encryption on an OSPFv3 interface, rst enable OSPFv3 globally on the router.
Congure the same encryption policy (same SPI and keys) on each interface in an OSPFv3 link.
An SPI value must be unique to one IPsec security policy (authentication or encryption) on the router.
When you congure encryption for an OSPFv3 area with the area encryption command, you enable
both IPsec encryption and authentication. However, when you enable authentication on an area with the
area authentication command, you do not enable encryption at the same time.
If you have enabled IPsec authentication in an OSPFv3 area with the area authentication command,
you cannot use the area encryption command in the area at the same time.
