Syntax peer { group-name | ip-address | ipv6-address } password { cipher | simple } password undo peer { group-name | ip-address | ipv6-address } password Default MD5 authentication is not configured for any BGP peer. Views BGP view, BGP-VPN instance view Predefined user roles network-admin Parameters group-name: Specifies a peer group by its name, a case-sensitive string of 1 to 47 characters. The peer group must have been created. ip-address: Specifies a peer by its IP address. The peer must have been created. ipv6-address: Specifies a peer by its IPv6 address. The peer must have been created. cipher: Sets a ciphertext key. simple: Sets a plaintext key. password: Specifies the key string. This argument is case sensitive. If cipher is specified, it must be a ciphertext string of 33 to 137 characters. If simple is specified, it must be a string of 1 to 80 characters. Usage guidelines BGP peers must be configured with the same password to establish a TCP connection. MD5 verifies each TCP segment on the TCP connection between the BGP peers. For secrecy, all keys, including keys configured in plain text, are saved in cipher text. Examples # In BGP view, configure MD5 authentication between the local router 10.1.100.1 and its peer 10.1.100.2, and specify the key as a plaintext string of aabbcc. 1. Configure the local router: system-view [Sysname] bgp 100 [Sysname-bgp] peer 10.1.100.2 password simple aabbcc 2. Configure the peer router: system-view [Sysname] bgp 100 [Sysname-bgp] peer 10.1.100.1 password simple aabbcc # In BGP-VPN instance view, configure MD5 authentication between the local router 10.1.100.1 and its peer 10.1.100.2, and specify the key as a plaintext string of aabbcc. 3. Configure the local router: system-view [Sysname] bgp 100 [Sysname-bgp] ip vpn-instance vpn1 [Sysname-bgp-vpn1] peer 10.1.100.2 password simple aabbcc 4. Configure the peer router: 292
