We have been caught several times lately with some of our border routers loss of BGP peering going undetected for sometime. Is there a way to enable BGP peering loss monitoring via SNMP from a CISCO router? I've looked at both the public and private MIBS but haven't found anything.

I am aware of the 'nocol' package but really was hoping for an SNMP based approach to tie into our net-mgmt packages (sunnet and hpov).

TIA
