A small utility, written in Python, to record and replay BMP packets very useful for devloping around the protocol.

Originally part of OpenBMP dev tools, it eventually disappeared from the known cyber space. The idea is to make this tool public again for the community to enjoy and improve.

To record: bmp_play.py -m record -p 1790 -f bmp.dump

To replay: bmp_play.py -m play -p 1790 -f bmp.dump -d 127.0.0.1

• Replay a dump 3 times with 60 secs delay between the plays. Once finished, keep the TCP connection up:

  • bmp_play.py -m play -p 1790 -f bmp.dump -d 127.0.0.1 -l 3 -i 60 -k

• Replay a dump forever with 120 secs delay between the plays:

  • bmp_play.py -m play -p 1790 -f bmp.dump -d 127.0.0.1 -l 0 -i 120

A small utility, written in Python, to filter pre-recorded BMP packets by BMP message type.

bmp_filter.py -i /path/to/file.bmp -o /path/to/output/file.bmp --statistics-report --peer-down --peer-up --initiation
