[MRTG] How To Monitor Number of BGP Prefixes from BGP Peer on Cisco Router(s) using MRTG
Posted by admin on July 29th, 2010
This is my CFG File.
The complete OID is 1.3.6.1.4.1.9.9.187.1.2.4.1.1.192.168.150.164.1.1
The OID of Accepted BGP Routes : 1.3.6.1.4.1.9.9.187.1.2.4.1.1
The OID of Max BGP Routes : 1.3.6.1.4.1.9.9.187.1.2.4.1.3
[well this not really important as this just to make the mrtg capturing to work, since mrtg MRTG needs to graph two variables/OIDs].
The IP Address of the BGP Peer being monitored : 192.168.150.164
The version of IP & Routing Type : 1.1 > IPv4 & Unicast.

=================== Options Information ======================
More information on : MRTG Website
gauge
Treat the values gathered from target as ‘current status’ measurements
and not as ever incrementing counters.
This would be useful to monitor things like disk space, BGP Prefixes,
processor load, temperature, and the like …
integer
Print summary lines below graph as integers without commas, if you missed this on your option… MRTG would print / plot the value with additional x.000 for example 50 prefixes > 50.000 prefixes.
nopercent
Don’t print usage percentages.
