Once you have it going it's very easy. I have entries like this:
rtr 1
 type echo protocol ipIcmpEcho 62.xx.xxx.148
rtr schedule 1 life forever start-time now

You can monitor them using cricket, genRtrConfig has a --rtragents flag 
that will collect data on any active RTR entries it finds, and will draw 
a graph of response time etc.
