BGP Notification Message (3), length: 21, OPEN Message Error (2), subcode Authentication Failure

When Junos is configured for an external BGP session with a neighbor not directly connected, without the "multihop ttl 2" configuration statement, it will fail to accept the neighbor with a notification message following the open message:

Code:

   Notification Message (3), length: 21, OPEN Message Error (2), subcode Authentication Failure (5)

There is no fix, but correct configuration: if ebgp neighbor is not directly connected, it's mandatory to:

Code:

# set protocols bgp group <GROUP> multihop ttl 2

Under group or under neighbor.
