   Could any one tell me how to use ospf authentication?
   
   There is a command "ip ospf authentication-key" and "ip ospf
   message-digest-key" in interface configuration mode. There is another
   command "area x authentication [message-digest]". I want to know what
   is the relationship between these two commands.
   
   Document CD said that "ip ospf authentication-key" is used with "area
   x authentication" and "ip ospf message-digest-key" is used with "area
   x authentication message-digest-key". But I found that "ip ospf
   authentication-key" can be used with "area x authentication
   message-digest-key" and "ip ospf message-digest-key" can be used with
   "area x authentication".
   
   So could anyone tell me what is the relationship with these two
   commands on earth.
