  1. MD5 authentication was not used for connection with the peer whose remote peer address is 192.168.2.2.

  2. MD5 authentication was used for connection with the peer whose remote peer address is 172.16.2.2.

Notes

A peer relationship is not established if TCP MD5 authentication fails (if the peer's BGP Status is not Established). Check the operation message to see if TCP MD5 authorization failed.
