check_bgp is very useful.  However, it would be a lot more useful if there 
were vendor support for BGP4-MIBv2.  If you are talking to your vendor 
about what sort of features you'd like to see in future releases, this is 
an important one to have, as it allows you to monitor bgp sessions which 
aren't just the default vrf ipv4.
