[Feature] BGP/OSPF tab with monitoring

[kowalski848]

As ROS in current state is unable to provide prefix count via SNMP it would be nice to create graphs with prefix counts and session stats like uptime etc

Shipped in v1.38.0.

Devices running BGP or OSPF now get a Routing (BGP/OSPF) tab on the device detail page:

• BGP sessions — peer, remote AS, state, uptime, received prefix count, and session name
• OSPF neighbors — address, router-id, state, adjacency time, priority, and area

As you pointed out, this is exactly the data RouterOS does not give you over SNMP — the legacy BGP4-MIB only exposes IPv4 peer state/uptime (no prefix counts), and there is no OSPF MIB at all. mikr reads it over the CLI instead, so the per-peer prefix count and OSPF neighbors come through. The tab only shows up on devices that actually have a BGP session or OSPF neighbor, and it auto-refreshes while open.

Tested against a full feed (1M+ prefixes shows fine) and OSPF over tunnels.

The graphs you asked for (prefix-count and session uptime over time) are the natural next step — that needs a small time-series store, so it is planned as a follow-up rather than in this first cut. I will post here when it lands.

Thanks for the detailed request!

Follow-up: the history graphs are now in v1.39.0.

Each BGP peer now keeps a 5-minute time-series, charted right under the BGP table in the Routing tab:

• Prefix-count over time — a line with an auto-scaled Y axis, so even the small drift of a full ~1M-prefix feed is visible (a zero-based axis would just show a flat line).
• Session up/down strip — one segment per sample, red where the session was down, so flaps/outages stand out.
• Ranges 6h / 24h / 7d / 30d; samples kept for 90 days by default.

The first peer is shown by default; click any row in the BGP table to chart that peer.

OSPF stays an instant-state view for now — unlike BGP there is no per-neighbour prefix count that maps cleanly to a single line.

Thanks again for the request!
