[c-nsp] Monitoring Routing Protocol Neighborships to clients

[Christopher Hunt]

I work at a small shop and only have a few customer BGP sessions, but I am
quite happy with http://snmptt.sourceforge.net/ .  Using a hosts file we
can name the hosts sanely and tune snmptt to  ignore some noisy customers

Cheers,
Chris
