None of the routers that are tested in the lab are capable of supporting a
full BGP feed....

If you just want to play with BGP stuff, you can use Zebra (unix) or go to
www.nantech.com and get their BGP4WIN program.

That may help you a bit more.

Subject: Getting a BGP table in to a lab


I'm trying to come up with a way to get a full BGP routing table in to my
lab.
I'm not really fussed about keeping it up to date, so a snapshot is fine.
At the moment, I'm thinking about spending a few hours hacking together a
BGP daemon in perl to peer with and record a table from a production router,
disconnect, and then start peering with lab routers.

Am I reinventing a wheel here?
