Enables or disables AdvertiseWhenDown. If enabled, the
network on this interface is advertised as up, even if the port
is down. The default is disabled.

link is down. To disable advertising based on link status, this

typically formatted as an IP address.
Configures the authentication key for the port (OSPF
interface). <string> specifies the key as a simple password

authentication key that is specified by the area
authentication-key command. If MD5, they must contain the
MD5 key.
