BGP neighbor password

A BGP neighbor password is used for the neighbor range. Once a BGP group is configured, it uses a password to establish the neighborhood.

config router bgp
    config neighbor-group
        edit <name>
            set password <password>
        next
    end
end

To configure the BGP group:

1. Configure the R3 FortiGate settings:

   config router bgp
       config neighbor-group
           edit "FGT"
               set soft-reconfiguration enable
               set remote-as 65050
               set local-as 65518
               set local-as-no-prepend enable
               set local-as-replace-as enable
               set route-map-in "del-comm"
               set keep-alive-timer 30
               set holdtime-timer 90
               set update-source "npu0_vlink0"
               set weight 1000
               set password ENC ********
           next
       end
       config neighbor-range
           edit 1
               set prefix 172.16.201.0 255.255.255.0
               set max-neighbor-num 10
               set neighbor-group "FGT"
           next
       end
   end

2. Configure the R4 router settings:

   config router bgp
       config neighbor
           edit "172.16.201.1"
               set soft-reconfiguration enable
               set remote-as 65518
               set password ********
           next
       end
   end
