Earlier this year I got a /24 of PA space, set up our shiny new router, got BGP working with both my upstreams, and heaved a sigh of relief: "I'll never have to think about THAT again!" (Okay, quit laughing; I SAID I was a noob!) Now, I discover that one of my upstreams quit announcing our route in November (fortunately the provider who assigned us the /24, so we're still covered in their /18) and the other upstream apparently started filtering our announcements last week. I'm working with both of them to get that fixed, but it's made it clear to me that I need to be monitoring this. My question for the group is, how? I can and do monitor my own router, and I can see that I'm receiving full routes from both ISPs. I am capable of manually accessing route servers and looking glass servers to check if they're receiving routes to me, but I'd like something more automated. Free is nice, $$ is not a problem, $$$$ might become a problem. Thanks in advance for any suggestions. -- Dave Pooser Manager of Information Services Alford Media http://www.alfordmedia.com
