RFC 2082: RIP-2 MD5 Authentication

This RFC has been replaced. Do not implement against it for new work — it was formally obsoleted by RFC 4822.

Current version: RFC 4822 — RIPv2 Cryptographic Authentication

In plain English — editorial summary, not part of the RFC

Growth in the Internet has made us aware of the need for improved authentication of routing information. RIP-2 provides for unauthenticated service (as in classical RIP), or password authentication. [STANDARDS-TRACK]
