Hi Csaba,

Thanks for the links. I am using a Juniper at the other end. The ISIS group 
configuration contains the md5 config for the interfaces, but you can 
override the global config by explicitly configuring the interfaces under the 
protocol ISIS. 
So the following works fine.
ekenny@edge1-testlab> show configuration protocols isis interface ge-1/1/8.0
hello-padding disable;
level 1 disable;
level 2 {
    hello-authentication-key "$9removed"; ## SECRET-DATA
    hello-authentication-type simple;
}
ekenny@edge1-testlab>

edge5-testlab#show running-config ethernet3
interface ethernet3
 description "Link to edge1-testlab"
 vrf forwarding isisvrf
 ipv4 address 192.168.1.1 255.255.255.254
 router isis4 1 enable
 router isis4 1 circuit level2
 router isis4 1 password $v10$removed==
 no shutdown
 no log-link-change
 exit

Thank you for your help.

Regards
Eoin

hi,
at the moment, freerouter can only do cleartext authentication on interface 
or lsp level:
http://sources.nop.hu/cfg/intop2-isis08.tst
http://sources.nop.hu/cfg/intop2-isis11.tst
in both tests, r1 is freerouter and r2 is xrv9k...
regards,
cs
