SNMP

SNMP

The BIRD protocol SNMP makes it possible to retrieve management information
through SNMP. This is accomplished by implementing AgentX protocol. The BIRD
acts as an AgentX subagent, registers to master agent and provides management
information. Master agent handles SNMP communication and forwards request to
registered subagents. You will therefore need an additional component -- a SNMP
daemon capable of acting as AgentX master agent. In theory, the information
consumer don't have to support SNMP and could be very simple master agent for
logging/monitoring the BIRD state. For more detail see provided documentation.
