RIP and EIGRP Authentication

Similarities:
- RIP & EIGRP both have the same syntax format for assigning key chain, key ID and key-string
- Apply authentication always at an interface level
- During application on the interface you have the option of choosing clear text or MD5

Method:

key chain [GIVE IT A NAME]
 key [KEY ID]
  key-string [THIS IS THE PASSWORD]


For RIP Authentication on the Interface:


interface [interface ID - inclusing VLAN interfaces]
 ip rip authentication mode md5
 ip rip authentication key-chain [KEY CHAIN]
end



For EIGRP Authentication on the Interface:
interface [interface ID - inclusing VLAN interfaces]

  ip authentication mode eigrp [AS#]md5

  ip authentication key-chain eigrp [AS#] [KEY CHAIN]

EXAMPLE:


key chain KEY
 key 1    
  key-string CISCO
!
!

interface Vlan102
 ip address 192.10.1.10 255.255.255.0
 ip rip authentication mode md5
 ip rip authentication key-chain RIP
end


Authentication Option:
Router-A(config-if)#ip rip authentication mode ?
  md5   Keyed message digest
  text  Clear text authentication 

Testing Authentication : with incorrect password
Rack1SW4#deb ip rip

RIP protocol debugging is on
