interesting phenomenon, one which makes no sense to me. sorry, I don't have
configs or traces, so I hope my word is good here.

Practicing authentication of various kinds. RIPv2.

R1--------R2---------R3

the authentication key chain and key strings are different on the R1-R2 link
than on the R2-R3 link. all routes on all routers appear as expected.
however, I am unable to ping from R1 to R3 or visa versa.

when I remove authentication, save, all routes appear again, and end to end
pinging occurs just fine

put in authentication again, with all links using the same authentication
key-string. all routes appear in all routing tables and end to end pinging
occurs.

question - how is it that all routes appear everywhere, but pinging is not
possible when the authentication key-string is different for the different
links? authentication has nothing to do with the routed protocol - only the
routing protocol messages. anyone run into this one? my CCO searches were
not enlightening.
