JUNOS per-level authentication authenticates and requires authenticatied
IIH, SNP and LSP PDUs;

the two other mentioned implementations authenticate LSPs only and some [depending
on SW version] also SNPs;

since JUNOS 5.4 the

no-hello-authentication,
no-csnp-authentication and
no-psnp-authentication

knobs are provided to adapt to any enviroment;
