RFC 3567: Intermediate System to Intermediate System (IS-IS) Cryptographic Authentication
This RFC has been replaced. Do not implement against it for new work — it was formally obsoleted by RFC 5304.
Current version: RFC 5304 — IS-IS Cryptographic Authentication
In plain English — editorial summary, not part of the RFC
This document describes the authentication of Intermediate System to Intermediate System (IS-IS) Protocol Data Units (PDUs) using the Hashed Message Authentication Codes - Message Digest 5 (HMAC-MD5) algorithm as found in RFC 2104. IS-IS is specified in International Standards Organization (ISO) 10589, with extensions to support Internet Protocol version 4 (IPv4) described in RFC 1195. The base specification includes an authentication mechanism that allows for multiple authentication algorithms. The base specification only specifies the algorithm for cleartext passwords. This document proposes an extension to that specification that allows the use of the HMAC-MD5 authentication algorithm to be used in conjunction with the existing authentication mechanisms. This memo provides information for the Internet community.
