Re: ospf authentication

My point wasn't that Brian McGahan or Narbik was wrong and it hurt one
of their egos. My point was that someone would even take the time to
get involved in something like wording semantics.

People on here need help learning topics like MPLS VPN troubleshooting,
OER/PfR, EEM scripting, multicast troubleshooting, route redistribution,
etc but not the semantics of null vs no. If someone wants to debate
that they should take it off line.
