BGP Monitoring Protocol
draft-ietf-grow-bmp-08
Abstract
This document defines a protocol, BMP, which can be used to monitor
BGP sessions. BMP is intended to provide a more convenient interface
for obtaining route views for research purpose than the screen-
scraping approach in common use today. The design goals are to keep
BMP simple, useful, easily implemented, and minimally service-
affecting. BMP is not suitable for use as a routing protocol.
