Command Usage

The password to be used for authentication is specified in the ip rip authentication key command (page 3-140).

This command requires the interface to exchange routing information with other routers based on an authorized password. (Note that this command only applies to RIPv2.)

For authentication to function properly, both the sending and receiving interface must be configured with the same password or authentication key.
