Group "Upstream Connections" { Group "T3 to whomever" { Service Ping { hostname: far-side.example.net } Service UDP/SNMP { eqvalue: 6 label: BGP uname: BGP oid: .1.3.6.1.2.1.15.3.1.2.x.x.x.x hostname: your-router.example.net } } Group "T3 to whomever2" { Service Ping { hostname: far-other-side.example.net } Service UDP/SNMP { eqvalue: 6 label: BGP uname: BGP oid: .1.3.6.1.2.1.15.3.1.2.x.x.x.x hostname: your-router.example.net } } }something like that will alert you when BGP is anything other than happy. your oid may vary. use snmpwalk to help.
then you could also add: Service Prog { frequency: 1800 command: chkbgp.pl -a <ASN> -n <network> -r <route_server> nexepect: evil } *http://jeremy.kister.net/code/perl/chkbgp.pl -- Jeremy Kister http://jeremy.kister.net./
