View
IS-IS view
Parameter
simple: Configures to transmit the password in plain text.
md5: Configures to transmit the password encrypted with MD5 algorithm.
password: Configures a password. If simple authentication is used, the password must
be a simple-text password. If MD5 authentication is used, the password can be a
simple-text or a cipher-text password. A simple-text password can be a character string
with no more than 16 characters, for example, huawei918. Note that the simple-text
password defined for MD5 authentication is displayed in cipher text. A cipher-text
password must have 24 characters in cipher text, for example,
(TT8F]Y\5SQ=^Q`MAF4<1!!.
password: Specifies the authentication password which can be a character string with 1
to 16 characters. If md5 is specified, the password will be displayed in a cipher text
form with 24 characters when the display current-configuration command is
executed. Inputting password in a cipher text form with 24 characters is also supported.
ip: If this item is configured, the system checks the configuration of the corresponded
field of the IP in LSP.
osi: If this item is configured, the system checks the configuration of the corresponded
field of the OSI in LSP.
The configuration of ip or osi is independent of the real network environment.
Description
Use the domain-authentication-mode command to configure the IS-IS routing
domain to authenticate the received Level-2 routing packets (LSP, CSNP, PSNP),
according to the pre-defined mode and password.
Use the undo domain-authentication-mode command to configure IS-IS not to
authenticate the said packets.
By default, the system will not authenticate the received level-2 routing packets, and
there is no password. By using this command, all the level-2 routing packets, whose
domain authentication passwords do not consist with the one set via this command will
not be received. At the same time, this command will let IS-IS insert the domain
