Configuring Passive Peering
When you enable a peer-group, the software sends an OPEN message to initiate a TCP connection.
If you enable passive peering for the peer group, the software does not send an OPEN message, but it
responds to an OPEN message.
When a BGP neighbor connection with authentication configured is rejected by a passive peer-group, the
system does not allow another passive peer-group on the same subnet to connect with the BGP
