Cisco CCNP BSCI 642-901 Tutorial: Clear Text OSPF Neighbor Authentication Computers Articles | February 1 Derwin James Game Jersey , 2007
To pass the 642-901 BSCI exam, you have to know how to configure OSPF neighbor authentication.? Learn how to configure clear-text authentication from Chris Bryant, CCIE #12933.
An OSPF adjacency can be authenticated with MD5 (Message Digest 5) or with a clear-text password.? I?m not much on clear-text passwords Joey Bosa Game Jersey , and hopefully you aren?t either!? Whether you?re working in the real world or the certification exam room, though, it?s always a good idea to know more than one way to do things.? Let?s take a look at how to configure clear-text authentication of an OSPF neighbor relationship.
The commands we?ll use are ?ip ospf authentication-key? and ?ip ospf authentication?. In this example Melvin Gordon III Game Jersey , we have preexisting adjacencies between three routers in an OSPF NBMA network.? The hub router (R1) has an adjacency with two spoke routers, R2 and R3.
The password is set by the interface-level command ip ospf authentication-key.? While Cisco routers will usually tell you when you?re about to try to do something that you can?t do, this password is a rare exception to the rule.? Let?s set a password of passbscitest and then check the router config.
I entered a 12-character password, but only the first eight are showing in the router configuration.? The router failed to warn us that this particular password has a limit of eight characters.? As of IOS 12.4, the router now warns the admin about this LaDainian Tomlinson Game Jersey , but there are plenty of routers out there that aren?t running that recent a release!
Clear-text authentication is enabled with the ip ospf authentication command.? IOS Help shows there is no specific command for clear-text authentication.? (Null and clear-text authentication are not the same thing.)
R1(config)#int serial0
R1(config-if)#ip ospf authentication ?
message-digest?Use message-digest authentication
null?Use no authentication
To set clear-text authentication, just use the basic command with no options.
R1(config-if)#ip ospf authentication
About two minutes after entering that configuration, the preexisting adjacencies go down:
R1#
00:25:38: %OSPF-5-ADJCHG: Process 1 Easton Stick Limited Jersey , Nbr 172.12.123.2 on Serial0 from FULL to DOWN, Neighbor Down: Dead timer expired
R1#
00:25:58: %OSPF-5-ADJCHG: Process 1, Nbr 172.12.123.3 on Serial0 from FULL to DOWN Drue Tranquill Limited Jersey , Neighbor Down: Dead timer expired
R1#
Until we configure the spoke routers with the same config, the adjacencies will stay down ? so let?s get those spokes configured!
R2(config)#interface serial0
R2(config-if)#ip ospf authentication-key passbsci
R2(config-if)#ip ospf authentication
R3(config)#interface serial0
R3(config-if)#ip ospf authentication-key passbsci
R3(config-if)#ip ospf authentication
On R1, show ip ospf neighbor verifies that the adjacencies are back up.
Now that you know how to configure OSPF neighbor authentication in clear text Nasir Adderley Limited Jersey , you need to learn how to use MD5 authentication, and that just happens to be the subject of my next CCNP BSCI 642-901 exam tutorial!? See you then!
