neighbor password (BGP and BGP4+)
Use this command to enable MD5 authentication on a TCP connection between BGP and
BGP4+ neighbors. No authentication is applied by default. To setup authentication for the
session, you must first apply authentication on each connected peer for the session.
Use the no variant of this command to disable this function.
