Adding Virtual Router Authentication Profiles
License:
Control
Supported Devices:
Series 3
You can set up Authentication Profiles for use in RIP and OSPF configurations. You can configure a
simple password or specify a shared cryptographic key. Simple passwords allow for every packet to carry
eight bytes of the password. The system ignores received packets lacking this password. Cryptographic
keys allow for validation, a 16-byte long digest generated from a password to be appended to every
packet.

Note that for OSPF, each area can have a different authentication method. Therefore, you create
authentication profiles that can be shared among many areas. You cannot add authentication for OSPFv3.
