They are two different levels of authentication. Simple verses complex.

Subject: OSPF Authentication Clarification

Dear,
        When doing authen under ospf in my lab some times I find the authen
should be done in two steps under the interface and sometimes in one step
In two steps -->>> ip osp authen mess
                                ip osp message-dig 1 md5 cisco

In one step -->> ip ospf message-dig 1 md5 cisco

Same thing under the virtual link authentication, So i wonder which one is
the more accurate and if there is a mixture is there any role to follow?
thx
