There is a testing method in K14397: Running a command or custom script based on a syslog message.

The process ID in "BGP[13155]" is the reason for the matching failure, for it is not a fixed number. You might want to try something like "

BGP*: BGP: %BGP-5-ADJCHANGE: neighbor IP ADDRESS Down
" instead (I presume that "IP ADDRESS" is a fixed string).
