Quidway S3500 Series Ethernet Switches Chapter 4 BGP Configuration Commands
Huawei Technologies Proprietary
4-39
Description
Using the peer password command, you can configure MD5 authentication for BGP
during TCP connection setup. Using the undo peer password command, you can
cancel the configuration.
By default, BGP does not perform MD5 authentication when TCP connection is set up.
Once MD5 authentication is enabled, both parties involved in the authentication must
be configured with identical authentication modes and passwords. Otherwise, TCP
connection will not be set up because of the failed authentication.
This command is used to configure MD5 authentication for the specific peer only when
the peer group to which the peer belongs is not configured with MD5 authentication.
Otherwise, the peer should be consistent with the peer group.
Example
# Adopt MD5 authentication on the TCP connection set up between the local router at
10.1.100.1 and the peer router at 10.1.100.2.
[Quidway-bgp] peer 10.1.100.2 password simple huawei
# Perform the similar configuration on the peer.
[Quidway-bgp] peer 10.1.100.1 password simple huawei

Description
Using peer public-as-only command, you can configure not to carry the AS number
when transmitting BGP update packets. Using undo peer public-as-only command,
you can configure to carry the AS number when transmitting BGP update packets.
By default, private AS number is carried when transmitting BGP update packets.
Generally, BGP transmits BGP update packets with the AS number (either public AS
number or private AS number). To enable some outbound routers to ignore the AS
