7210 SAS-MXP, R6, R12, S, SX, T BASIC SYSTEM
CONFIGURATION GUIDE RELEASE 22.9.R1
System management
Platforms
Supported on all 7210 SAS platforms as described in this document, including platforms configured in the
access-uplink operating mode
Description
This command sets the authentication key ID, type and key used to authenticate NTP PDUs sent to or
received by other network elements participating in the NTP protocol. For authentication to work, the
authentication key ID, type and key value must match.
The no form of this command removes the authentication key.
Parameters
key-id
Specifies the authentication key ID that will be used by the node when transmitting or
receiving Network Time Protocol packets.
Entering the authentication-key command with a key ID value that matches an existing
configuration key will result in overriding the existing entry.
Recipients of the NTP packets must have the same authentication key ID, type, and key
value in order to use the data transmitted by this node. This is an optional parameter.
Values 1 to 255
key
Specifies the authentication key associated with the configured key ID, the value
configured in this parameter is the actual value used by other network elements to
authenticate the NTP packet.
The key can be any combination of ASCII characters up to maximum 32 characters for
message-digest (MD5) or maximum 8 characters for DES (length limits are not encrypted).
If spaces are used in the string, enclose the entire string in quotation marks (‟.”).
hash
Specifies that the key is entered in an encrypted form. If the hash or hash2 parameter
is not used, the key is assumed to be in a non-encrypted, clear text form. For security,
all keys are stored in encrypted form in the configuration file with the hash or hash2
parameter specified.
hash2
Specifies that the key is entered in a more complex encrypted form that involves more
variables then the key value alone, this means that hash2 encrypted variable can’t be
copied and pasted. If the hash or hash2 parameter is not used, the key is assumed to be in
a non-encrypted, clear text form. For security, all keys are stored in encrypted form in the
configuration file with the hash or hash2 parameter specified.
type
Specifies if DES or message-digest authentication is used.
Values des — Specifies that DES authentication is used for this key
message-digest — Specifies that MD5 authentication, in accordance
with RFC 2104, is used for this key.
