HAPTER ONFIGURATION OMMANDS
peer-address: Peer IP address in dotted decimal notation.
cipher: Displays the password in cipher text.
simple: Displays the password in plain text.
password: Password string. When you provide the cipher argument but input the
password in plain text, or if you provide the simple argument, the password is one
to 16 characters in length. When you provide the cipher argument and input the
password in cipher text, the password must be 24 in length.
Description
Use the peer password command to enable BGP to perform the MD5
authentication when establishing a TCP connection.
Use the undo peer password command to cancel this function.
By default, BGP does not perform the MD5 authentication when setting up a TCP
connection.
When the MD5 authentication is enabled, both parties must have the same
authentication mode and password; otherwise, no TCP connection can be
established because MD5 authentication fails.
MD5 authentication can be performed on a specific peer only when the group to
which the peer belongs is not configured with MD5 authentication. Otherwise,
the configuration of the peer group applies.
Example
# Assign MD5 authentication to a TCP connection between the local router
10.1.100.1 and the peer 10.1.100.2.
[3Com-bgp-af-vpn-instance] peer 10.1.100.2 password simple 3com
# Perform a similar configuration to the remote end.
[3Com-bgp-af-vpn-instance] peer 10.1.100.1 password simple 3com
