Laurean,
                Just like OSPF authentication which can be enabled on an
interface or for the whole area. IPSec for OSPF for IPv6 can be configured
on an interface or on an OSPF area as well . For higher security, users
should configure a different policy on each interface configured with IPSec.

Te following link would give you examples for both types (Link & Area).
