Key 0 is a null key. This is the default key for MD5 authentication...

So you may be fooled by the fact that all your routing still works, however
you would lose points because your password is not 'cisco' (or whatever the
lab asks for).

Subject: [IEWBv4 lab3 - Question 4.5]: Virtual-Link Authentication

Hi Brians/group,

IEWBv4 Lab3, Question 4.5 require OSPF authentication in area 0.

In solutions, virtual-link authentication is required. But I don't configure
authentication on virtual-link and it still works.

It says using default key id 0. What is this key? and where is it from?

Thanks

This is my output:
