How to determine whether MD5 Authentication type for OSPF has been enabled

Question & Answer


Question

Use the commands specified here to verify the implementation of the MD5 authentication type for OSPF on z/OS Communications Server.

Answer

Use either of these commands to show the authentication type (AUTHENTICATION) used by all active OSPF areas that are attached to the router:

  • D TCPIP,tcpipjobname,OMPROUTE,OSPF,AREASUM
  • F procname,OSPF,AREASUM

Use either of these commands to show the authentication type (AUTYPE) used by all configured OSPF areas:
  • D TCPIP,tcpipjobname,OMPROUTE,OSPF,LIST,AREAS
  • F procname,OSPF,LIST,AREAS

Use either of these commands to show the authentication type (AUTH TYPE) used by a specific OSPF interface by name:
  • D TCPIP,tcpipjobname,OMPROUTE,OSPF,INTERFACE,NAME=if-name
  • F procname,OSPF,INTERFACE,NAME=if-name
Use either of these commands to show the authentication type (AUTYPE) on all configured OSPF interfaces:
  • D TCPIP,tcpipjobname,OMPROUTE,OSPF,LIST,ALL
  • F procname,OSPF,LIST,ALL
