Usage
Information
Before you enable IPsec authentication on an OSPFv3 interface, first enable IPv6
unicast routing globally, configure an IPv6 address and enable OSPFv3 on the
interface, and assign the interface to an area.
An SPI value must be unique to one IPsec security policy (authentication or
encryption) on the router. Configure the same authentication policy (same SPI and
key) on each OSPFv3 interface in a link.
To remove an IPsec authentication policy from an interface, enter the no ipv6 ospf
authentication spi number command. To remove null authentication on an
interface to allow the interface to inherit the authentication policy configured for
the OSPFv3 area, enter the
no ipv6 ospf authentication null command.
