#14 dump syntax problem and logging

[Anonymous]

Hi,

I have an application that needs to see MRTd's routing table on another
machine (for human viewing). I currently have a fairly clumsy system which
telnets into MRTd, performs "dump ip bgp ro filename" then fetches the
results of the dump file via a script.

According to the manual, MRTd can do periodic dumps, but the syntax of the
dump command in the manual does not match practice in 2.2.2. Can it still
be done? eg "dump ip bgp ro filename 5m" (this command is rejected)

Also, as an experiment I am allowing semi-public access to MRTd on one of
my machines, is there a way to log the commands that people enter?

Cheers.
