bgp monitoring (check_bgp_neighbors) command syntaxassistance

[Brown, Robin]

Perhaps your router does not support that mib.  Check here and see if your image supports it:

http://tools.cisco.com/Support/SNMP/do/BrowseOID.do?objectInput=+1.3.6.1.4.1.9.9.187.1.2.4.1.1&translate=Translate&submitValue=SUBMIT&submitClicked=true

There is a link to check if your image supports the mib.

Well I was able to do an smpwalk on my router - of course trying to find the correct OID might be a problem...

Failed object: .1.3.6.1.4.1.9.9.187.1.2.4.1.1

I could only do a search up to 1.3.6.1.4.1.9.9, if I included 187 I got an error on an invalid OID

I am wondering if anyone else is using the check_bgp_neighbors script sucessfully?

I did a search on the OID from my error and this is what it generated...

I think your syntax is ok, as it's not line 107 that its actually
failing on, it's the two OID lookup(s) on the router - it's not able to
see them via snmpwalk in the script...

The shell script itself is inserting those last two "neighbor" IP
addresses into the snmpwalk call(s) as part of the specific OID's, so it
could definitely be a typo or something - can you try to manually run
snmpwalk against the router to troubleshoot it further?

Cheers,
james
