AFAIK You MUST have it enabled on all routers in the same area, but the
password only has to match between neighbors so you can use separate
passwords with different peers.

Subject: OSPF Authentication per interfaces

IS it possible to do OSPF authentication on say 2 routers in an area (e.g.
area 0) that has more routers?
E.g. Area 0 has R1, R2, R3, R4, you want MD5 between R1-R2 ONLY & not R3,
R4.

Someone said that you don't need to specify "area 0 authentication" under
OSPF process & just specify MD5 key etc on relevant router interfaces. Doyle
does not mention it... If possible this will have implication for virtual
link authentication not being necessary

Many thanks & regards.
