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!!.
level-1
: Configures authentication password for L1.
level-2
: Configures authentication password for L2.
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
isis authentication-mode
command to configure the IS-IS to authenticate the
Hello packets of the corresponding level, in the specified mode and with the specified
password on the IS-IS interface.
Use the
undo isis authentication-mode
command to cancel the authentication and
delete the password at the same time.
By default, the password is not set and no authentication is executed.
If the password is set, but no parameter is specified, the default settings are Level-1,
plaintext and osi.
