What is ospfVirtIfAuthKey?
This holds the authentication key for this virtual link, left-adjusted and zero-filled to 8 octets when the area uses simplePassword authentication, and always reads back as a zero-length string for security. Admins configure this to match the shared password expected by the virtual neighbor at the far end of the transit area.
Examples
Walk all instances (SNMPv2c):
snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.2.1.13.9.1.9 snmpwalk -v2c -c public <target> RFC1248-MIB::ospfVirtIfAuthKey
Get a specific instance (index 1):
snmpget -v2c -c public <target> 1.3.6.1.2.1.13.9.1.9.1 snmpget -v2c -c public <target> RFC1248-MIB::ospfVirtIfAuthKey.1
Set instance 1 (SNMPv2c):
snmpset -v2c -c private <target> 1.3.6.1.2.1.13.9.1.9.1 s <value>
