Hi,
I'm working on a lab where I have MD5 authentication on all routers in the
backbone. When I'm connecting area 3 through area 1 to the backbone I'm
getting an authentication mismatch on the area 0 side of the virtual link. sh
ip ospf virtual-links shows that md5 authentication is enabled for the VL.
Turning on MD5 authentication on the virtual link from area 3 doesn't help.
The only solution was to put area 0 authentication on the area 3 router. It
works without a password on the interface.
Can anyone explain how area authentication works in this regard?
