Hi All
 
I having a few problems with eigrp authentication. Routers R7 and R8
are connected via serial. I have tested layer 1-3 connectivity which
is OK. eigrp is forming neighbors ok when authentication is not
configured. OSPF is also running and is working OK with adj being
formed etc. The relevent portion of the config are below:
 
The debug from R7 is as follows:
 
*Mar 1 00:28:21.577: EIGRP: Serial0/1: ignored packet from 150.50.5.69,
opcode
= 5 (missing authentication)
 
R8
interface Serial0
 ip address 150.50.5.69 255.255.255.224
 ip authentication mode eigrp 1 md5
 ip authentication key-chain eigrp 1 ccie
 no fair-queue
router eigrp 1
 network 150.50.4.0 0.0.0.255
 network 150.50.5.64 0.0.0.31
 no auto-summary
 no eigrp log-neighbor-changes

thanks in advance

I don't see the configuration for the key chain . . .

key chain EIGRP-KEY
 key 1
  key-string cisco

Make sure the key-string is identical on both ends. A common mistake
(for those unfamiliar with the syntax) is to add a space and '?' when
configuring the key-string. Then the first instance has an extra space
at the end of the string.
