Authentication Mode
Set the authentication mode and parameters for authenticating RIP packets
on a RIPv2 interface.
• If the Authentication Mode is null, the interface does not authenticate
RIP packets, and the Key String and Key ID are not required.
• If Simple is specified for Authentication Mode, the interface
authenticates RIP packets using simple text key. You need to configure a
Key String in simple text.
• If MD5 RFC2453 is specified for Authentication Mode, the interface
adopts the MD5 authentication mode, and the authentication packet is
in the format defined in RFC 2453. You need to configure a Key String
in MD5 cipher text.
• If MD5 RFC2082 is specified for Authentication Mode, the interface
adopts the MD5 authentication mode, and the authentication packet is
in the format defined in RFC 2082. Then, you need to configure a Key
String in MD5 cipher text and a Key ID.
IMPORTANT:
If Default or RIPv1 is specified as the RIP version, the authentication
information you have configured does not take effect.
