Some upstream BGP peers may require password authentication:
```yaml
metallb_protocol: bgp
metallb_ip_range:
- 10.5.0.0/16
metallb_peers:
- peer_address: 192.0.2.1
peer_asn: 64512
my_asn: 4200000000
password: "changeme"
```
When using calico >= 3.18 you can replace MetalLB speaker by calico Service LoadBalancer IP advertisement.
See [calico service IPs advertisement documentation](https://docs.projectcalico.org/archive/v3.18/networking/advertise-service-ips#advertise-service-load-balancer-ip-addresses).
In this scenarion you should disable the MetalLB speaker and configure the `calico_advertise_service_loadbalancer_ips` to match your `metallb_ip_range`
