Add Authentication in VRRP configuration

Open sbarguil opened this issue 3 years ago • 0 comments

A router will ignore incoming VRRP packets from routers that do not have the same authentication configuration for a VRRP group. VRRP commonly has three authentication schemes:

  • No authentication
  • Plain text authentication
  • MD5 authentication

VRRP packets will be rejected in any of the following cases:

  • The authentication schemes differ on the router and in the incoming packet.
  • MD5 digests differ on the router and in the incoming packet.
  • Text authentication strings differ on the router and in the incoming packet.
