of 24 characters when the display current-configuration command is executed.
Inputting the MD5 key in a cipher text form with 24 characters is also supported.
Description
Use the ospf authentication-mode command to configure the authentication mode
and key between adjacent routers.
Use the undo ospf authentication-mode command to cancel the authentication key
that has been set.
By default, the interface does not authenticate OSPF packets.
The passwords for authentication keys of the routers on the same network segment
must be identical. In addition, using the authentication-mode command, you can set
the authentication type of the area so as to validate the configuration.
Related command: authentication-mode.
