An ospfv2 routing engine for use with quagga routing software.
ospfd [ -dhlv ] [ -f config-file ] [ -i pid-file ] [ -P port-number ] [ -A vty-address ] [ -u user ] [ -g group ]
ospfd is a routing component that works with the Quagga routing engine.
Options available for the ospfd 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/ospfd.conf.
-g, --group group
Specify the group to run as. Default is quagga.
-h, --help
A brief message.
-i, --pid_file pid-file
When ospfd starts its process identifier is written to pid-file. The init system uses the recorded PID to stop or restart ospfd. The likely default is /var/run/ospfd.pid.
-P, --vty_port port-number
Specify the port that the ospfd VTY will listen on. This defaults to 2604, as specified in /etc/services.
-A, --vty_addr vty-address
Specify the address that the ospfd VTY will listen on. Default is all interfaces.
-u, --user user
Specify the user to run as. Default is quagga.
-a, --apiserver
Enable OSPF apiserver. Default is disabled.
-v, --version
Print the version and exit.
/usr/local/sbin/ospfd
The default location of the ospfd binary.
/usr/local/etc/ospfd.conf
The default location of the ospfd config file.
$(PWD)/ospfd.log
If the ospfd process is config'd to output logs to a file, then you will find this file in the directory where you started ospfd.
This man page is intended to be a quick reference for command line options. The definitive document is the Info file Quagga.
The ospfd process may log to standard output, to a VTY, to a log file, or through syslog to the system logs. ospfd supports many debugging options, see the Info file, or the source for details.
