[rancid] perl scripting for BGP prefix monitoring/backup

[Sambath Chhoeun]

Dear Everyone,

I am now looking for way to monitoring and backup the BGP prefix from
Cisco/Juniper devices, and I am thinking if we could have a perl scripting
to patch into the rancid and get it do the backup. Anyone experience with
that? Much Appreciate with your help.

Regards,
Sambath

using rancid 3.1,
create a new module in lib/rancid with a function to parse the output
create a new type in rancid.types.conf(5)
use the base definition as a template with a new name
replace the commands with your show ip bgp command
include the new module with your parsing function
