As Max stated, you can set triggers based on thresholds that are monitered

but I'm sure the features are similar.
Well as someone else stated, if an upstream provider can't provide BGP
reliably then it's time to give them the boot. Once in a year, okay, but
beyond that, then it's time to read riot act with that provider.
