The following video tutorial will walk you through the configuration steps required to set up Authentication and Encryption (using both Authentication Header (AH) and Encapsulating Security Payload (ESP) headers) for OSPFv3. A look at the Cisco Bug ID#CSCtc72699 is also done by demonstrating that not only will this bug prevent OSPFv3 neighbor relationships from establishing, but that is not fixed in 12.4(24)T8 code as advertised. The workaround for the bug is demonstrated and the adjacency between routers is fixed. I also use (originally posted by Jeremy Stretch at packetlife.net) a quick way to generate a 40 character random HEX string for use in your configuration.
