DXS-3600 Series Layer 3 Managed 10Gigabit Ethernet Switch CLI Reference Guide
Address Family Configuration Mode (IPv4 unicast, VPNv4 and VRF).
Command Default Level
Level: 12.
Usage Guideline
To advertise a route to an eBGP peer, the BGP router will use the original next hop of the advertised
route as the next hop if the original next hop is in the same subnet as the router's advertising interface.
This will create problem if the attaching interface is an unmeshed network where BGP neighbors may not
have direct access to all other neighbors on the same IP subnet. Use the neighbor next-hop-self
command to use the router's self IP address as the next-hop of the routes for this case.
Example
This example shows how to force all updates destined for 10.108.1.1 to advertise this router as the next
hop.
Switch# configure terminal
Switch(config)# router bgp 40000
Router(config-router)# neighbor 10.108.1.1 next-hop-self
Router(config-router)#
10-47 neighbor password
This command is used to enable Message Digest 5 (MD5) authentication and set the password on a TCP
connection between two BGP peers. Use the no command to disable this function.
neighbor {IP-ADDRESS | PEER-GROUP-NAME} password PASSWORD
no neighbor {IP-ADDRESS | PEER-GROUP-NAME} password
Parameters
IP-ADDRESS
PEER-GROUP-NAME
PASSWORD
Default
By default, this option is disabled.
Command Mode
Router Configuration Mode.
Address Family Configuration (VRF) Mode.
Command Default Level
Level: 12.
Usage Guideline
This command is used to configure the password for a BGP neighbor or BGP peer group. The password
setting will cause TCP connections between the peers to restart with MD5 authentication. The same
password need be configured between peers; otherwise the TCP connection will fail.
Specifies the IP address of the BGP peer.
Specifies the name of a Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) peer group.
The maximum length is 16 characters.
Specifies the clear text password. The password is used when the
TCP connection between BGP neighbors is established. This
password can be up to 25 characters long.
