NAME
       ripd - a RIP routing engine for use with Quagga routing software.

SYNOPSIS
       ripd  [ -dhrv ] [ -f config-file ] [ -i pid-file ] [ -P port-number ] [
       -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.
