       -A vty-address ] [ -u user ] [ -g group ]

DESCRIPTION

       ripd is a routing component that works with the Quagga routing  engine.

OPTIONS

       Options available for the ripd command:

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/ripd.conf.

       -g, --group group
              Specify the group to run as. Default is quagga.

       -h, --help
              A brief message.

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

       -P, --vty_port port-number
              Specify the port that the ripd VTY will listen on. This defaults
              to 2602, as specified in /etc/services.

       -A, --vty_addr vty-address
              Specify the address that the ripd 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 ripd.

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

FILES

       /usr/local/sbin/ripd
              The default location of the ripd binary.

       /usr/local/etc/ripd.conf
              The default location of the ripd config file.

       $(PWD)/ripd.log
              If the ripd process is config'd to output logs to a  file,  then
              you will find this file in the directory where you started ripd.

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