3.13 ip rip authentication key-chain

 Command: ip rip authentication key <name-of-chain>

 no ip rip authentication key-chain

 Function: Use this command to enable RIPV2 authentication on an interface and further

configures the adopted key chain. The “no ip rip authentication key-chain” command

cancels the authentication.

 Parameter: <name-of-chain> is the name of the adopted key chain. There may be

spaces in the string. The input ends with an enter and the string should not be longer

than 256 bytes.

 Default: Not configured.

 Command Mode: Interface Configuration Mode.

 Usage Guide: If the authentication is only configured without configuring the key chain

or password used by the interface, the authentication does no effect. If mode has not

been configured prior to configuring this command, the mode will be set to plaintext

authentication. The “no ip rip authentication key” command will cancel the

authentication which only cancels the authentication process when sending or receiving

data packet other than set non authentication mode.

 Example: Switch# config terminal

 Switch(config)# interface vlan 1

 Switch(Config-if-Vlan1)# ip rip authentication key my key

 Relevant Commands: key, key chain
