NOTE (Jan 2016): There has been some squabble in Debian about the Debian Live CD project. Its link was cleaned out..so the links referenced in this doc do not work. Once the Debian Live CD project is spin out and it has its own website, I will change my reference links. For now all the links to Debian Live CD point the epub documentation I downloaded a while ago. The doc is well written. Probably one of the best I have seen for an open source project.
I have been testing various monitoring systems lately. This month I am looking at Sensu. When I deployed Quagga, it comes with a little monit type application called watchquagga. This application, within a few seconds, restarts a failed routing protocol, like ospf6d or bgpd. Watching the routing protocol processes using check-proc.rb does not help.
