NAME
bgpd - a BGPv4, BGPv4+, BGPv4- routing engine for use with Quagga routing software SYNOPSIS
bgpd [ -dhrv ] [ -f config-file ] [ -i pid-file ] [ -p bgp-port-number ] [ -P port-number ] [ -A vty-address ] [ -u user ] [ -g group ] DESCRIPTION
bgpd is a routing component that works with the Quagga routing engine. OPTIONS
Options available for the bgpd command: -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. -g, --group group Specify the group to run as. Default is quagga. -h, --help A brief message. -i, --pid_file pid-file When bgpd starts its process identifier 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 bgp-port-number 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. -A, --vty_addr vty-address Specify the address that the bgpd VTY will listen on. Default is all interfaces. -u, --user user Specify the user to run as. Default is quagga. -r, --retain When the program terminates, retain routes added by bgpd. -v, --version Print the version and exit. FILES
/usr/local/sbin/bgpd The default location of the bgpd binary. /usr/local/etc/bgpd.conf The default location of the bgpd config file. $(PWD)/bgpd.log If the bgpd process is config'd to output logs to a file, then you will find this file in the directory where you started bgpd. WARNING
This man page is intended to be a quick reference for command line options. The definitive document is the Info file Quagga. 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. SEE ALSO
ripd(8), ripngd(8), ospfd(8), ospf6d(8), isisd(8), zebra(8), vtysh(1) BUGS
bgpd eats bugs for breakfast. If you have food for the maintainers try http://bugzilla.quagga.net AUTHORS
