Hi there,

I have created some simple management scripts for linux. You can use it 
on your linux machine with ssh keys. You can grab the scripts here; 
http://www.oom-killer.org/jbin/ you can just add or remove simple bgp 
peers and some policies. I wont support my scripts though it aint that 
hard to understand how it works. I hope i helped you with this.

Kevin.
