Hi wondering if anyone else is already monitoring BGP on cisco devices. Wondering how others are doing this SNMP trap or Syslog ? How are you trigging alerts?

Thanks in advanced

There's probably better ways, but we do an SNMP query on bgpPeerState and alarm if the result is not 6 (established)

SNMP Parameter .1.3.6.1.2.1.15.3.1.2.{instance}

Instance Discovery SNMP Walk on .1.3.6.1.2.1.15.3.1.2

Threshold Last Polled Value != 6

We are also using this OID.

Here is some more info: https://oidref.com/1.3.6.1.2.1.15.3.1.2

SYNTAX INTEGER {
idle(1),
connect(2),
active(3),
opensent(4),
openconfirm(5),
established(6)
}
