Okay folks, starting off a late night studying and noticed something weird. Got two boxes connected like so RouterA-------RouterB
Router B has a bunch of segments off of it. Something weird. Per some of the material I have, the key chain names are supposed to be the same but I've found that on routerA I can use the name "test" and router B I can use the name "test2" and it'll work (i.e Routes get passed properly) Router A key chain test key 1 key-string cisco ip rip authentication key test Router B key chain test2 key 1 key-string cisco ip rip authentication test2 But if on routerB, I change the key-chain name to "test ". (yes there is a space at the end) and apply the appropriate "ip rip authentication test " into the interface then the router spits back about it not liking the authentication (invalid authentication) Am I loosing my mind. "test" and "test12345" are the same but "test" and "test " are different? I know that in BGP, you can apply multiple route-maps and if you leave a space at the end, the router things there is another route-map your calling and therefor may not make it through. Thanks all!
