What modes of authentication are supported for RIPv2 on the Alcatel-Lucent 7750 SR?
RIPv2 on the Alcatel-Lucent 7750 SR supports both password and MD5 authentication. This allows for securing table updates using either a plain text password or a more secure MD5 hash.
The correct answer is B. This following is taken from Nokia website. https://infocenter.nokia.com/public/7705SAR90R4A/index.jsp?topic=%2Fcom.sar.routing_protocols%2Fhtml%2Ftitlepage.html 7.1.2. RIPv2 Authentication RIPv2 messages carry more information than RIPv1 messages, which permits the use of a simple authentication mechanism to secure table updates. The 7705 SAR RIPv2 implementation enables the use of a plain text (simple) password or message digest (MD5) authentication.
