Detailed Description

Class to check inbound MD5 authenticated packets and add authentication data to outbound OSPF packets. The OSPFv2 MD5 authentication scheme is described in Section D.3 of RFC 2328.

static const OspfTypes::AuType AUTH_TYPE

AUTH_TYPE

MD5Key (class)

MD5Key

Class to hold MD5 key information.

typedef list<MD5Key> KeyChain

KeyChain

 MD5AuthHandler (EventLoop& eventloop)

MD5AuthHandler

Constructor

Parameters:

eventloopthe EventLoop instance to used for time reference.
const char*  effective_name ()

effective_name

[const]

Get the effective name of the authentication scheme.

Returns: the name of the authentication scheme.

Reimplemented from AuthHandlerBase.

const char*  auth_type_name ()

auth_type_name

[static]

Get the method-specific name of the authentication scheme.

Returns: the method-specific name of the authentication scheme.

void  reset ()

reset

Reset the authentication state.

Reimplemented from AuthHandlerBase.

uint32_t  additional_payload ()

additional_payload

[const]

Additional bytes that will be added to the payload.

Returns: the number of additional bytes that need to be added to the payload.

Reimplemented from AuthHandlerBase.

bool  authenticate_inbound (const vector<uint8_t>& packet, const IPv4& src_addr, bool new_peer)

authenticate_inbound

Inbound authentication method.

Parameters:

packetthe packet to verify.
src_addrthe source address of the packet.
new_peertrue if this is a new peer.

Returns: true if packet passes authentication checks, false otherwise.

Reimplemented from AuthHandlerBase.

bool  authenticate_outbound (vector<uint8_t>& packet)

authenticate_outbound

Outbound authentication method.

Parameters:

packetthe packet to authenticate.

Returns: true if packet was successfully authenticated, false when no valid keys are present.

Reimplemented from AuthHandlerBase.

bool  add_key (uint8_t key_id, const string& key, const TimeVal& start_timeval, const TimeVal& end_timeval, const TimeVal& max_time_drift, string& error_msg)

add_key

Add a key to the MD5 key chain.

If the key already exists, it is updated with the new settings.

Parameters:

key_idunique ID associated with key.
keyphrase used for MD5 digest computation.
start_timevalstart time when key becomes valid.
end_timevalend time when key becomes invalid.
max_time_driftthe maximum time drift among all routers.
error_msgthe error message (if error).

Returns: true on success, false if end time is less than start time or key has already expired.

bool  remove_key (uint8_t key_id, string& error_msg)

remove_key

Remove a key from the MD5 key chain.

Parameters:

key_idunique ID of key to be removed.
error_msgthe error message (if error).

Returns: true if the key was found and removed, otherwise false.

void  key_start_cb (uint8_t key_id)

key_start_cb

A callback that a key from the MD5 key chain has become valid.

Parameters:

key_idunique ID of the key that has become valid.
void  key_stop_cb (uint8_t key_id)

key_stop_cb

A callback that a key from the MD5 key chain has expired and is invalid.

Parameters:

key_idunique ID of the key that has expired.
MD5Key*  best_outbound_key (const TimeVal& now)

best_outbound_key

Select the best key for outbound messages.

The chosen key is the one with most recent start-time in the past. If there is more than one key that matches the criteria, then select the key with greatest ID.

Parameters:

nowcurrent time.
void  reset_keys ()

reset_keys

Reset the keys for all sources.

const KeyChain&  valid_key_chain ()

valid_key_chain

[const]

Get all valid keys managed by the MD5AuthHandler.

Returns: list of all valid keys.

const KeyChain&  invalid_key_chain ()

invalid_key_chain

[const]

Get all invalid keys managed by the MD5AuthHandler.

Returns: list of all invalid keys.

bool  empty ()

empty

[const]

Test where the MD5AuthHandler contains any keys.

Returns: if the MD5AuthHandler contains any keys, otherwise false.
