When managing peering networks that are connected using Border Gateway Protocol (BGP), you might need to find out if a path exists between the Services Router and its configured BGP neighbors. You can ping each BGP neighbor manually to determine the connection status, but this method is not practical when the Services Router has a large number of BGP neighbors configured.
In the Services Router, you can configure RPM probes to monitor the BGP neighbors and determine if they are active.
For BGP configuration information, see the J-series Services Router Basic LAN and WAN Access Configuration Guide.
