For MD5 authentication, the key must be 32 hex digits (non-
encrypted) or 64 hex digits (encrypted).
For SHA-1 authentication, the key must be 40 hex digits (non-
encrypted) or 80 hex digits (encrypted).

Usage Information
Before you enable IPsec encryption on an OSPFv3 interface, first enable OSPFv3
globally on the router. Configure the same encryption policy (same SPI and keys) on
each interface in an OSPFv3 link.
An SPI value must be unique to one IPsec security policy (authentication or encryption)
on the router.
When you configure encryption for an OSPFv3 area with the area encryption
command, you enable both IPsec encryption and authentication. However, when you
