check_openbgpd - checks status of OpenBGPd peers

The only real caveat is that bgpctl needs rw permission to /var/run/bgpd.sock.

check_openbgpd needs access to run "bgpctl show", this can be accomplished

One way to allow for that is by adding an entry to /etc/sudoers and then

with a restricted socket set up for bgpd(8).

making the check run sudo check_openbgpd.

This is an example of a setup for NRPE. For checks on the machine running

${SYSCONFDIR}/bgpd.conf:

Nagios, use the _nagios user in /etc/sudoers instead of _nrpe, and of course,

socket "/var/run/rbgpd.sock" restricted

no ${SYSCONFDIR}/nrpe.cfg.

For more information on bgpd(8) see the OpenBSD man page.

/etc/sudoers:

_nrpe ALL=NOPASSWD:${PREFIX}/libexec/nagios/check_openbgpd -w 1000\:300000 -c 100\:500000 -n peer1 peer2 peer3

${SYSCONFDIR}/nrpe.cfg:

command[check_openbgpd]=/usr/bin/sudo ${PREFIX}/libexec/nagios/check_openbgpd -w 1000:300000 -c 100:500000 -n peer1 peer2 peer3

command[check_openbgpd]=/usr/local/libexec/nagios/check_openbgpd -s /var/run/rbgpd.sock -w 1000:300000 -c 100:500000 -n peer1 peer2 peer3
