ipv6 ospf authentication rfc6506
RFC 6506 authentication is disabled by default.
Interface subtype configuration mode
Use this command to set or reset authentication in accordance with RFC 6506 on the OSPFv3 interface to which you are connected. This may be required for backward compatibility. Although RFC 6506 is superseded by RFC 7166, some vendors continue to support RFC 6506. To ensure interoperability with vendor equipment that supports RFC 6506, use this command in conjunction with the required authentication options.
The no form of the command removes the RFC 6506 authentication configuration from the OSPFv3
The following example sets HMAC-SHA-1 authentication, in accordance with RFC 6506, on the OSPFv3 interface. HMAC-SHA-1 authentication is enabled using key-id "1", key "0 1234567890123456789", and a key activation wait time of 5 seconds.
