router ospf 1000
 log-adjacency-changes
 area 0 authentication message-digest
 area 6 virtual-link x.x.x.x
 network x.x.x.x 0.0.0.255 area 6
 network x.x.x.x 0.0.0.255 area 10
 
Hello,
 
This router has a virtual link to area 0 through area 6. Area 0 is doing
authentication. I could not get the routes on the this router into the rest
of the ospf network unless I added the "area 0 authentication
message-digest" on this router. This is very strange since this router does
not have any interfaces in area 0. Unless the virtual link is like an
interface in Area 0. Also, I did not have to add the password anywhere on
the router. Strange. It's almost like half authentication. Can someone
explain this?
 
TIA,
Danny
