Description
This command configures a message digest key when MD5 authentication is enabled on the interface,
virtual-link or sham-link. Multiple message digest keys can be configured.
Note that this command is not valid in the OSPF3 context.
The no form of the command removes the message digest key identified by the key-id.
Default
