NAME

       bgpd - a BGPv4, BGPv4+, BGPv4- routing engine for use with Zebra

SYNOPSIS

       bgpd [ -dhpPv ] [ -f config-file ] [ -i pid-file ] [ -p bgp-port-number ] [ --bgp_port=port-number ] [ -P vty-port-number ]

DESCRIPTION

       bgpd is a routing component that works with the zebra routing engine.

OPTIONS

       -d, --daemon
	      Runs in daemon mode, forking and exiting from tty.

       -f, --config-file config-file
	      Specifies the config file to use for startup. If not specified this option will likely default to /usr/local/etc/bgpd.conf.

       -h, --help
	      A brief message.

       -i, --pid_file pid-file
	      When  bgpd starts its process idenifier is written to pid-file.  The init system uses the recorded PID to stop or restart bgpd.  The
	      likely default is /var/run/bgpd.pid.

       -p, --bgp_port=port
	      Set the port that bgpd will listen to for bgp data.

       -P, --vty_port port-number
	      Specify the port that the bgpd VTY will listen on. This defaults to 2605, as specified in /etc/services.

       -r, --retain
	      When the program terminates, retain routes added by bgpd.

       -v, --version
	      Print the version and exit.

DIAGNOSTICS

       The  bgpd  process  may log to standard output, to a VTY, to a log file, or through syslog to the system logs. bgpd supports many debugging
       options, see the Info file, or the source for details.
