Information
Define an authentication key chain to enable authentication for RIPv2 routing protocols.
Rationale:
This is part of the routing authentication process.
Solution
Establish the key chain.
hostname(config)#key chain {rip_key-chain_name}
Impact:
Organizations should plan and implement enterprise security policies that require rigorous authentication methods for routing protocols. Configuring the proper authentication 'key-chain (name)' for RIPv2 protocols enforces these policies by restricting acceptable authentication between network devices.
Default Value:
Not set
