configure router rip interface authentication
This command configures RIP-2 authentication for an interface.
The type of authentication and the key value to be used can be specified, but this is only valid with RIP version 2
(mode 3). When authentication is configured, all subsequent RIP updates contain authentication information. In
addition, all subsequent incoming RIP packets on that interface are accepted only if they carry a valid
authentication header.
