DESCRIPTION

       This manual page documents briefly the xorp_rtrmgr command.

       This manual page was written for the Debian distribution because the original program does not have a manual page.

       xorp_rtrmgr is the program that that manages the whole eXtensible Open Router Platform (XORP) platform. The program loads its configuration
       file  (commonly named config.boot) which will read from the current working directory You can specify a different filename for the configu-
       ration file using the -b     command line flag. The -N "no execute" flag will cause xorp_rtrmgr to startup and pretend the router is  oper-
       ating normally, but to not actually start any processes. This can be used to check configuration files.

       Typically  xorp_rtrmgr  must  be  run as root. This is because it starts up processes that need privileged access to insert routes into the
       forwarding path in the kernel.

       To interact with the router via the command line interface, the operator should use the XORP command shell xorpsh.
