'mysql ERROR 1064 (42000): You have an error in your SQL syntax;

i have installed mysql 8.0.12 into one linux node and when i try to give below grant permission to get access from other nodes, i am getting 42000 error

command issued :

GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON *.* TO 'root'@'%' IDENTIFIED BY 'password';

Return results:

ERROR 1064 (42000): You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near 'IDENTIFIED BY 'secure1t'' at line 1

Any help would be appreciated.

GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON your_desired_database_name.* TO 'root'@'localhost';
