.1.3.6.1.2.1.14.7.1.16
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 [RFC1704].
When read, ospfIfAuthKey always returns an octet
string of length zero.
