NAME

   ospfd - an OSPFv2 routing engine for use with Quagga routing software.

SYNOPSIS

   ospfd [ -dhlv ] [ -f config-file ] [ -i pid-file ] [ -P port-number ] [
   -A vty-address ] [ -u user ] [ -g group ]

DESCRIPTION

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

OPTIONS

   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.

FILES

   /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.

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 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.
