"BGP is not a protocol"

simonszu opened this issue · comments

Hi,

i am trying to setup this plugin in my Icinga installation to monitor a bird with some BGP and one OSPF connection. However, i have trouble setting it up.
When i execute check_bird_proto.pl -p bgp i get BIRD_PROTO CRITICAL - 9001 syntax error
When i execute check_bird_proto.pl -p BGP i get BIRD_PROTO CRITICAL - 9002 BGP is not a protocol.
How do i query bird for BGP protocol? The same happens with OSPF.
I am noticing you are parsing the output for some kind of "1002-line". However, i don't have any line starting with 1002, maybe that's the problem?

The -p options takes a protocol instance name. So perhaps your protocol instance is not actually named bgp or BGP, even if it is a BGP protocol? Try looking at the output of: birdc show protocols

I'm no longer maintaining any BIRD installations, so this project is unfortunately dormant as well. I'm afraid I cannot test to see if this is an actual bug.
