Hello, fellow posters,

As you can see from the subject, I'd like to set up a PC-based netflow
v5 probe, capable of exporting information about specific source and
destination ASes for the purpose of accounting. Regretfully, I
didnt come to any solution, mostly because the kernel FIB, eventhough
injected with a full BGP routing table, doesnt carry any BGP specific
information (such as next-hop AS, src AS, dst AS, etc.). This is
normal, because the BGP speaking daemons, be it Zebra/Quagga, Xorp or
OpenBGPd are userspace programs and probably dont have a way to inject
such information into the kernel FIB, that's why keep it in its own
structures.

My question is does any of you, and mostly Paolo, know of a way to
achieve some sort of interaction between the BGP-speaking daemon (e.g.
Quagga) and pmacct, so as pmacct to be able to export Netflow v5 data,
including src/dst AS information.

Sorry if my question seems a bit messy.
