RIPv2 authentication (single key)
AlliedWare Plus
TM
RIP implementation provides the choice of configuring authentication for a
single key or for multiple keys. This example illustrates authentication of the routing information
exchange process for RIP using a single key. The routing devices in this example are Allied
Telesis managed Layer 3 Switches. Switch 1 and Switch 2 are running RIP and exchange routing
updates. To configure single key authentication on Switch 1, specify an interface and then define
a key or password for that interface. Next, specify an authentication mode. Any receiving RIP
packet on this specified interface should have the same string as password. For an exchange of
updates between Switch 1 and Switch 2, define the same password and authentication mode
on Switch 2.
