Configures the MD5 (Message-Digest algorithm 5) authentication key for checkpoint connection to MLAG (Multi-switch Link Aggregation Group) peer.
| mlag | Multi-switch Link Aggregation Group used to combine remote ports and local ports to a common logical connection. |
| peer | Multi-switch Link Aggregation Group peer switch. |
| peer_name | Alphanumeric string identifying the MLAG peer. |
| authentication | Authentication for MLAG checkpoint connection. |
| md5 | MD5 authentication type. |
| key | Authentication key for checkpoint connection to the MLAG peer. |
| encrypted | Authenticaton key is in encrypted format. |
| auth_key | Authentication key. Max 32 characters. |
| none | Do not use authentication. |
None.
Use this command to configure MD5 authentication key for checkpoint connection to MLAG peer.
The following example displays show mlag peer output when authentication is not configured:
* Switch # show mlag peer Multi-switch Link Aggregation Peers: MLAG Peer : p2 VLAN : isc Virtual Router : VR-Default Local IP Address : 10.1.1.1 Peer IP Address : 10.1.1.2 MLAG ports : 1 Tx-Interval : 1000 ms Checkpoint Status : Up Peer Tx-Interval : 1000 ms Rx-Hellos : 8722 Tx-Hellos : 8725 Rx-Checkpoint Msgs: 1322 Tx-Checkpoint Msgs: 947 Rx-Hello Errors : 0 Tx-Hello Errors : 0 Hello Timeouts : 0 Checkpoint Errors : 0 Up Time : 0d:2h:22m:26s Peer Conn.Failures: 0 Local MAC : 00:04:96:7e:13:93 Peer MAC : 00:04:96:7e:13:71 Config'd LACP MAC : None Current LACP MAC : 00:04:96:7e:13:71 Authentication : None Alternate path information: VLAN : Mgmt Virtual Router : VR-Mgmt Local IP Address : 1.1.1.1 Peer IP Address : 1.1.1.2 Rx-Hellos : 722 Tx-Hellos : 725 Rx-Hello Errors : 0 Tx-Hello Errors : 0 Hello Timeouts : 0
