Hi,

In this case you don't have to use the area-password command - that will set
a password for the entire area. Try setting an L1 password on both serial
interfaces:

Wacky52
!
interface Serial0
 ip address 132.66.172.1 255.255.255.0
 ip router isis
 isis password cisco level-1
!
router isis
 net 00.0001.aaaa.aaaa.aaaa.00
 is-type level-1
!

Noddy
!
interface Serial3/2
 ip address 132.66.172.2 255.255.255.0
 ip router isis
 isis password cisco level-1
!
router isis
 net 00.0001.bbbb.bbbb.bbbb.00
!

Subject: ISIS L1 Authentication.

Hi,

I have the been going through ISIS in the LAB mainly from Doyles, Routing
TCP/IP Vol 1 (pg668-671)

I'm having the following problems getting authentication working in the
following set-up.

   L1 L1/L2
[Wacky52]-----------[Noddy]------->(L2 Router)
 11.2(24) 12.0(7)T

Noddy is in the same area as Wackey and they have established a L1
adjacency. When I set-up an "area-password cisco" within Wackey and "clear
isis *" both routers then establish an L1 adjacency?? This doesn't seem
right.

As an alternative I set up L1 ISIS password on the serial of Wacky52 but not
Noddy and it still works, if I change the password to be a L2 adj. fails.
Can anyone offer any guidance? (I have the password set-up on one router
and not the other, hence authentication should fail, when the pwd type is L1
as its a L1 connection.)

Thanks,

Philip.
