    Hello,

    If each router is configured to use key chain to authenticate each
    other, must both key-id and key-string be same?
    For example, R1 --------------- R2.
    On R1: (key1=abc, key2=def, key3=xyz)
    On R2: (key1=xyz, key2=abc, key3=def)
    They have same key-strings, but different key-ids, Can this
    configuration be used?

    Thanks.

    No, It cannot be used.

    In order for you to authenticate a peer, both key-string and key-id
    have to be the same in both peers.

    I.E.-
    R1 ---------- R2
    On R1: (key1=abc, key2=def, key3=xyz)
    On R2: (key1=abc, key2=def, key3=xyz)

    See you!!!
