How to monitor BGP on cisco ACI

[Pavel Saska]

Hi,

Does cisco support BMP (BGP Monitor protocol) on ACI (APIC)?

Or any other way how to do this?

thanks

Hi!

What exactly do you want to accomplish?

Monitor the status of BGP Sessions to devices outside of the fabric connected via L3Outs?

In that case casual SNMP polling of the concerned MIBs should work same as it always worked on Nexus Switches.

Let me know what you think.

Best regards

Hi, I assumed that APIC would support the BMP protocol. The goal is to monitor RIB inside the ACI fabric, not on L3OUTs.
I guess it could connect the spine’s (RR) to a router ouside of fabric that supports BMP, but I thought it could work directly from ACI/APIC somehow
