check_bgp - Cisco BGP Session Checker This little perl script logs into a Cisco router and does a "sh ip bgp summary" to collect te bgp session status. (This script works only if you use the "aaa newmodel athentification") To use this script, you must get and install Net::Telnet from CPAN. You can monitor each BGP session. When the specified number of route prefixes is not presend, a critical warning will apear. The configfile looks as follows: user=username password=password neighbor[ipaddr]=min-routeprefixes neighbor[ipaddr]=100 neighbor[ipaddr]=80 In netsaint the command line looks as follows: command[check_bgp]=/usr/local/netsaint/libexec/check_bgp $ARG1$ $HOSTADDRESS$ For sugestions, bug reports etc. send mail to cramer@freestone.net
