password or string you enter before using the value for authentication. If you accidentally enter option 1 followed by the clear-text version
of the password or string, authentication will fail because the value used by the software will not match the value you intended to use.
The password string parameter specifies an MD5 authentication string to secure sessions between the device and the neighbor. You can
enter a string of up to 80 characters. The string can contain any alphanumeric characters, but must be placed inside quotes if it contains
a space.
The system creates an MD5 hash of the password and uses it to secure sessions between the device and the neighbors. To display the
configuration, the system uses a 2-way encoding scheme to retrieve the original password.
By default, password is encrypted. If you want the password to be in clear text, insert a 0 between password and string.
device(config-bgp)# neighbor 10.157.22.26 password admin
Displaying the authentication string
To display the authentication string, enter the following commands.
device(config)# enable password-display
device(config)# show ip bgp neighbors
The enable password-display command enables display of the authentication string, but only in the output of the show ip bgp
neighbors command. String display is still encrypted in the startup configuration file and running configuration. Enter the command at
the global CONFIG level of the CLI.
NOTE
The command also displays SNMP community strings in clear text, in the output of the show snmp server command.
Displaying neighbor information
To display IPv6 unicast route summary information, enter the show ip bgp ipv6 summary command:
device(config-bgp)# show ip bgp ipv6 summary
