VPRN Service Configuration Commands
as-override
Syntax [no] as-override
Context config>service>vprn>bgp>group
config>service>vprn>bgp>group>neighbor
Description This command replaces all instances of the peer's AS number with the local AS number in a BGP
route's AS_PATH.
This command breaks BGP's loop detection mechanism. It should be used carefully.
Default
as-override is not enabled by default.
authentication-key
Syntax authentication-key [authentication-key | hash-key] [hash | hash2]
no authentication-key
Context config>service>vprn>bgp
config>service>vprn>bgp>group
config>service>vprn>bgp>group>neighbor
Description
This command configures the BGP authentication key.
Authentication is performed between neighboring routers before setting up the BGP session by veri-
fying the password. Authentication is performed using the MD-5 message-based digest. The
authentication key can be any combination of letters or numbers from 1 to 16.
The no form of the command removes the authentication password from the configuration and
effectively disables authentication.
Default
Authentication is disabled and the authentication password is empty.
