There's something called the Python Routing Toolkit from sprint labs
that gives you a python class called Bgp that you can use to make a
session with a router and recieve updates parsed into a dictionary. If
you glue that to some other classes/scripts/whatever you can do real
time graphing and calculations. It would be easier than hacking zebra
to do this, I think.
