Thanks for the answers. Maybe I've to clarify that I need this for Cisco only at the moment. So can I take this as a "there is no working snmp mib / implementation" yet?
It's somehow a shame that Cisco has IPv6 routing protocols working for years and no working snmp (even not a proprietary) solution yet. Please correct me if I'm wrong.
I'll have a look at gerty, sounds promising, also for other applications, but I'm still looking for an snmp solution because it's just ugly to use console commands (in whatever way) to query simple counters and status information when you already have the whole network monitored and graphed by snmp.

Hi SwiNOGers,
I started searching the web for a good solution on this task years ago. There was and is as far I can tell no actual SNMP MIB for monitoring IPv6 BGP and OSPFv3. The only thing that could be a solution is this already expired IETF draft http://tools.ietf.or/html/draft-ietf-idr-bgp4-mibv2-10
Can anyone give me an idea of how you are monitoring your IPv6 BGP peers and OSPFv3 neighbors (stuff like Status, prefixes, etc..)?
Depending on the device, telnet/ssh into it, execute the relevant 'show bgp neigh' command and use that.
Not ideal and one has to do this generally for a variety of things, but it avoids this weird thing called SNMP ;)
Greets, Jeroen
