Layer 3 Routing Commands 1303
In IPv6 Address Family Configuration mode, the command accepts either an
IPv4 or an IPv6 address. For IPv6, BGP uses an IPv6 address from the local
interface that terminates the peering session.
Command History
Introduced in version 6.2.0.1 firmware.
Example
console(config-router-af)#neighbor FE80::0202:B3FF:FE1E:8329 next-hop-self
neighbor password
Use the neighbor password command to enable MD5 authentication of TCP
segments sent to and received from a neighbor, and to configure an
authentication key.
Syntax
neighbor { ip-address | ipv6-address [ interface interface-id ] | autodetect
interface
interface-id } password string
no neighbor { ip-address | ipv6-address [ interface interface-id ]| autodetect
interface
interface-id } password
• ip-address — The neighbor’s IPv4 address.
•
ipv6-address [ interface interface-id ] – The neighbor’s IPv6 address. If the
neighbor’s IPv6 address is a link local address, the local interface must also
be specified. The
interface-id must specify a routing interface identifier
(VLAN ID).
•
autodetect interface interface-id —(Optional) The routing interface on
which the neighbor’s link local IPv6 address is auto detected. The
interface-id must be a VLAN routing interface.
•
string — Case-sensitive password from 1 to 25 characters in length.
Default Configuration
MD5 authentication is disabled by default.
