Disclosure - I work for Blue Planet.

Blue Planet, a division of Ciena, has Route Optimization and Analysis, a product that provides visibility into IP/MPLS networks and IGP/BGP routing. Its routing alerts include peering state change, prefix state change, path change, alerts for when number of non-baseline BGP peers are above or below a threshold, etc. It may have something to cover your use case.

Hi

 

I am looking for a route monitoring product that does the following:

-checks if a specific bgp route from a specific neighbor is present the BGP table (in some vrf, not necessarily internet routed vrf) of an ASR9K running IOS XR

-sends a syslog message or an alarm if the route goes missing

 

The use case is the following: we are receiving same routes over 2 or more bgp peerings, due to best route we cannot really see at the moment if one of the routes ceased to be received over a certain peering.

 

Alternative approach: a product that measures the number of bgp received prefixes from a certain peer.

 

Do you know of such product that is readily available and does not require ssh sessions to the routers and parsing the outputs?

I am trying to find a solution that does not require much scripting or customization.

 

Many thanks.

 

Regards

Mihai
