neighbor password

The neighbor password command enables the Message Digest 5 (MD5) authentication on a TCP connection between two BGP peers. The no neighbor password command disables the Message Digest 5 (MD5) authentication on a TCP connection between two BGP peers.

Use the neighbor password command to authenticate and to verify TCP connections between two BGP peers, of which the same password is configured. This command begins the MD5 generation for outgoing packets and check every segment on a TCP connection for incoming packets.
