Hi everyone
I apologise in advance, english is not my native language...
For study purpose, I'm trying to setup OSPFv2 between Bird 1.6.6 and a Cisco router.
protocol ospf test { instance id 42; area 0.0.0.0 { interface "eth*" { hello 2; dead count 3; authentication simple; password "azerty"; }; }; export all; }
17:13:38.012494 IP (tos 0xc0, ttl 1, id 21850, offset 0, flags [none], proto OSPF (89), length 64) 192.168.42.43 > 224.0.0.5: OSPFv2, Hello, length 44 Router-ID 192.168.42.43, Backbone Area, Authentication Type: simple (1) Simple text password: azerty
17:13:38.012792 IP (tos 0xc0, ttl 1, id 7301, offset 0, flags [none], proto OSPF (89), length 72) 192.168.42.73 > 224.0.0.5: OSPFv2, Hello, length 52 Router-ID 1.1.1.1, Backbone Area, Authentication Type: unknown (10753)
Can you tell me what I'm doing wrong ? If I try the "none" authentication, Bird send the code 10752 and the problem is the same...
Hi This is expected behavior, RFC 6549 redefined authentication type field from 16bit to 8bit, and is using higher 8bit as 'instance id'. For compatibility with older implementations just do not set 'instance id'. It has to be set on both sides to the same value anyways. -- Elen sila lumenn' omentielvo Ondrej 'Santiago' Zajicek (email: santiago@crfreenet.org) OpenPGP encrypted e-mails preferred (KeyID 0x11DEADC3, wwwkeys.pgp.net) "To err is human -- to blame it on a computer is even more so."
