Hello all, I have an application that needs to gather BGP RIB data from the routers that connect to all of our upstream providers. Basically I need to know all the routes available from a particular provider. Currently I'm gathering this data via SNMP. While this works it has its draw backs, it takes approximately 20 minutes per view, its nowhere near real-time, and I'm unable to gather information for IPv6. SNMP, however, is faster than screen scraping. All of the XML based access methods seem to take about the same time as well. I've been watching, with keen interest, the i2rs ietf workings, but the project is still in its infancy. BMP seems to be a good solution but I've not found a working client implementation yet. I see that you can actually configure this on some Juniper gear but I can't seem to locate a client to ingest the data the router produces. The BGP Add Paths implementation seems to be the best choice at the moment and exabgp has a working implementation. Are there any other technologies or methods of accessing this data that I've missed or that you've found useful? Thanks! --chip -- Just my $.02, your mileage may vary, batteries not included, etc....
