Netsat,
I understand these two types of authentication, but do you mean virtual
link authentication is independent of BB authentication now? As in the old
version virtual link authentication has to follow BB authentication type.
Thanks.

Frank,
The confusion is caused by the fact that there are two ways to do
authentication. The old way, by area, and the new way, by interface. The
new
way which conforms to the latest RFC was implemented in IOS 12.0. You can
still use either method
Under the old way if area 0 was configured for authentication then the
virtual
link
had to mirror that authentication type. Under the new way the virtual
link
or any other interface does not have to track the area 0 authentication and
can
be any type of authentication or no (null) authentication. Under the old
way
only one authentication command was required on the interface. Under the
new
way two authentication type commands are required on the interface. One
of
these authentication commands lets the IOS know that you are using the new
authentication type.
