Hmm, maybe the ArubaOS-CX switch does not expect authentication with OSPF then.

I disagree, I believe the third-party switch should be configured with MD5 authentication.

Haha, the ArubaOS-CX switch is like a picky eater - it only likes its authentication a certain way! Time to update the third-party switch's menu to keep the OSPF neighbors happy.

Looks like the third-party switch needs to be configured with MD5 authentication to match the ArubaOS-CX switch's requirements. That's the only way this OSPF peering is going to work.

I think the ArubaOS-CX switch requires plain-text authentication with OSPF.

The ArubaOS-CX switch seems to be expecting a different authentication type than the third-party switch is using. The logs indicate that it's seeing an unexpected authentication type 2, when it expects type 0 (no authentication).
