Object
column
r/w
OctetString
The cleartext password used as an OSPF Authentication key
when simplePassword security is enabled. This object does
not access any OSPF Cryptogaphic (e.g. MD5)
Authentication Key under any circumstance.
If the key length is shorter than 8 octets, the agent will
left adjust and zero fill to 8 octets.
Unauthenticated interfaces need no authentication key, and
simple password authentication cannot use a key of more
than 8 octets.
Note that the use of simplePassword authentication is NOT
recommended when there is concern regarding attack upon
the OSPF system. SimplePassword authentication is only
sufficient to protect against accidental misconfigurations
because it re-uses cleartext passwords. [RFC-1704]
When read, ospfPmMultiAreaIfAuthKey always returns an
Octet String of length zero.
