RIP: limited key lifetime

hi,

I'm wondering whether bird's RIP implementation features keys of limited 
lifetime, as the protocol dictates:

 From RFC2082:
    Implementations MUST support the storage of more than one key at the
    same time, although it is recognized that only one key will normally
    be active on an interface. They MUST associate a specific lifetime
    (i.e., date/time first valid and date/time no longer valid) and a key
    identifier with each key, and MUST support manual key distribution
    (e.g., the privileged user manually typing in the key, key lifetime,
    and key identifier on the router console).  The lifetime may be
    infinite.

I've tried to use the 'generate to/from' 'accept to/from' syntax, but 
didn't work. The authentication always fails.

regards,
   al_ex
