What is snOspfVirtIfAuthKey?

The simple-password authentication key (up to 8 octets, zero-padded) used on this virtual link when its authentication type is set to simple password; reading it always returns an empty string. Admins configure this alongside snOspfVirtIfAuthType to authenticate OSPF packets exchanged over the virtual link between the two area border routers.
