MD5 authentication for PCEP sessions

The authentication-key and authentication-key-chain commands are available in the set protocols pcep hierarchy to secure sessions from the router to a controller through PCEP.

Use the following CLI command to bind an MD5 key to PCEP sessions:

set protocols pcep pce pce-id authentication-key MD5-key

Use the following CLI commands to bind a key chain to PCEP sessions:

set protocols pcep pce pce-id authentication-key-chain key-chain

set protocols pcep pce pce-id authentication-algorithm md5

In support of this feature, the output for the following show commands includes a new field, pcep-session-auth:

•  show protocols pcep
• show path-computation-client status
