VRRP Authentication Settings
The
VRRP Authentication Settings
window is used to set the authentication for each Interface configured for VRRP. This
authentication is used to identify incoming message packets received by a router. If the authentication is not consistent with
incoming packets, they will be discarded. The
Authentication Type
must be consistent with all routers participating within the
VRRP group.
To view the following window, click
L3 Features > VRRP > VRRP Authentication Settings

Parameter
Description
Interface Name
The name of a previously created IP interface for which to configure the VRRP
authentication.
Authentication Type
Specifies the type of authentication used. The
Authentication Type
must be consistent with
all routers participating within the VRRP group. The choices are:
•
•
•
None
- Selecting this parameter indicates that VRRP protocol exchanges will not be
authenticated.
Simple
- Selecting this parameter will require the user to set a simple password in
the Auth. Data field for comparing VRRP message packets received by a router. If
the two passwords are not exactly the same, the packet will be dropped.
IP
- Selecting this parameter will require the user to set a MD5 message digest for
authentication in comparing VRRP messages received by the router. If the two
values are inconsistent, the packet will be dropped.
Authentication Data
This field is only valid if the user selects
Simple
or
IP
in the
Authentication Type
field.
•
•
Simple
will require the user to enter an alphanumeric string of no more than eight
characters to identify VRRP packets received by a router.
IP
will require the user to enter a MD5 message digest for authentication in
comparing VRRP messages received by the router.
This entry must be consistent with all routers participating in the same IP interface.
