Parameters
38-28 show mpls
This command is used to display the MPLS global configuration.
show mpls
Usage Guideline
Use this command to enable LDP authentication. If the LDP MD5 authentication is
enabled, the LSR will apply the MD5 algorithm to compute the MD5 digest for the
TCP segment that will be sent to the peer. This computation makes use of the peer
password as well as the TCP segment. When the LSR receives a TCP segment with
an MD5 digest, it validates the segment by calculating the MD5 digest (using its own
record of the password) and compares the computed digest with the received digest.
If the comparison fails, the segment is dropped without any response to the sender.
The LSR ignores LDP Hellos from any LSR for which a password has not been
configured.
Note:
Configuring MD5 authentication will cause the LDP to restart.
Example
This example shows how to enable LDP MD5 authentication.
DXS-3600-32S#configure terminal
DXS-3600-32S(config)# mpls label protocol ldp
DXS-3600-32S(config-mpls-router)#md5 authentication
IP-ADDRESS
Specifies the peer IP address. The IP address will be the peer’s LSR ID.
password
PASSWORD
Specifies the password. The maximum length of the password is 32 characters. The
password cannot have spaces or quotation mark characters
Default
By default, a peer has no password.
Command Mode
MPLS Router Configuration Mode.
Command Default Level
Level: 15.
Usage Guideline
Use this command to configure a LDP peer password. If the LDP MD5 authentication
is enabled, the switch only establish session with these peers whose password is
configured at both local and remote. The password configured on local must be
same as targeted peer.
Note:
If the session of the peer is established, configuring the peer password will
lead to the session restart.
Example
This example shows how to enable MD5 authentication and configure the peer
10.90.90.12 password to “abcd”.
DXS-3600-32S#configure terminal
DXS-3600-32S(config)# mpls label protocol ldp
DXS-3600-32S(config-mpls-router)#md5 authentication
DXS-3600-32S(config-mpls-router)#neighbor 10.90.90.12 password abcd
