Hi,
When configuring authentication for cleartext you use
(config-router)#area x authentication
(config-if)#ip ospf authentication-key [password]
When doing it for md5 you use
(config-router)#area x authentication message-digest
(config-if)#ip ospf message-digest-key [keyno] md5 [password]
My question is what is the need for the interface command
ip ospf authentication
The docs say it is new in 12.0 but why is it needed?
cheers,
niall
