I wrote a Nagios plugin which can monitor a few attributes of BIRD. You can find it (check_bird) and some ancillary checks on GitHub: <https://github.com/catalyst/nagios-linux-firewall-checks> -- Michael Fincham
And what exactly do you what to monitor ? --- With best regards, Dmitry S. Nikolaev Moscow, Russia www: http://www.subnets.ru mail: dnikolaev@mega-net.ru On 12.02.2016 20:13, Joseph M Owino wrote:

I wrote and maintain some useful operations tools for BIRD: https://github.com/dowlingw/bird-tool Have a look at the -n option which makes the bird_query.pl script run as a nagios check. If you want to do checks per ASN, combine it with the -a option. Also combine with -6 for bird6. It relies on a bit of convention for session names (R_AS#x#), but I plan on making this somewhat configurable later. Let me know if you like it or need any additional features! - Will

Hello, If you use checkmk¹ for your monitoring, Sileth, from Tetaneutral.net² (a french Operator/LIR/ISP) has developed a pluging³⁴ which monitor all BGP sessions IPv{4,6} (monitoring of status changes and new sessions), perfs data are also collected in your pnp4nagios or other tool. For metrology you can maybe use something like librenms or observium. Ps: <pub>Sileth has also developed the cool looking-glass here for bird https://github.com/sileht/bird-lg </pub> ;-) Cheers, Seb ¹https://mathias-kettner.de/checkmk.html ²http://tetaneutral.net/ ³https://github.com/sbadia/puppet-checkmk/blob/master/files/checks/bird ⁴https://github.com/sbadia/puppet-checkmk/blob/master/files/plugins/bird
