Usage Information Before you enable IPsec authentication on an OSPFv3 area, you must rst enable OSPFv3 globally on the router.
Congure the same authentication policy (same SPI and key) on each interface in an OSPFv3 link.
An SPI number must be unique to one IPsec security policy (authentication or encryption) on the router.
If you have enabled IPsec encryption in an OSPFv3 area with the area encryption command, you cannot use
the area authentication command in the area at the same time.
The conguration of IPsec authentication on an interface-level takes precedence over an area-level conguration.
If you remove an interface conguration, an area authentication policy that has been congured is applied to the
interface.
To remove an IPsec authentication policy from an OSPFv3 area, enter the no area area-id
authentication spi number command.
