NAME

       ripngd - a RIPNG routing engine for use with Quagga routing software.

SYNOPSIS

       [ -u user ] [ -g group ]

DESCRIPTION

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

OPTIONS

       Options available for the ripngd 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/ripngd.conf.

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

       -h, --help
              A brief message.

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

       -P, --vty_port port-number
              Specify  the  port  that  the  ripngd VTY will listen on. This defaults to 2603, as
              specified in /etc/services.

       -A, --vty_addr vty-address
              Specify the address that the ripngd 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/ripngd
              The default location of the ripngd binary.

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

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

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