Speaking as the editor of the MIB and being known for being opinionated about SNMP: SNMP sucks. SNMP is *not* a good tool for monitoring routing state. It's fine for monitoring peer counters and monitoring specific prefixes using standard polling techniques. The MIB also has the ability to let you examine multi-rib scenarios as well, but the indexing mechanism will have some amount of vendor-specificness to it. -- Jeff _______________________________________________ GROW mailing list [email protected] https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/grow
