Fix Recommendation

Configure the router to authenticate MSDP messages as shown in the following example:

[edit protocols msdp group AS25 peer 5.5.5.5]
set authentication-key xxxxxxxx

Check Contents

Review the router configuration to determine if received MSDP packets are authenticated.

protocols {
msdp {
group AS25 {
peer 5.5.5.5 {
authentication-key "$8$KspW87GUH.mTxNfz"; ## SECRET-DATA}
}
}

If the router does not require MSDP authentication, this is a finding.
