Hi,


bird does not include a SNMP agent. You have to find a different
solution for now.


BUT: It would be a nice project to add a SNMP subagent to the project. Goal:


- Create a SNMP subagent framework for bird that utilizes net-snmp's
AgentX interface

- The subagent should provide BGP information according to RFC 4273 (BGP
MIB).


Any volunteers?

Mit freundlichen Grüßen,
