Currently OSPFv3 uses IPsec as the only mechanism for authenticating
protocol packets. This behavior is different from authentication
mechanisms present in other routing protocols (OSPFv2, IS-IS, RIPng).
In some environments, it has been found that IPsec is difficult to
configure and maintain, and cannot be used. This document proposes
an alternative mechanism to authenticate OSPFv3 protocol packets so
that OSPFv3 does not depend upon only IPsec for authentication.
