@ -21,6 +21,48 @@ OPTIONS available for the |DAEMON| command:
.. include:: common-options.rst
.. option:: -p, --bgp_port <port>
Set the bgp protocol's port number. When port number is 0, that means do not
listen bgp port.
.. option:: -l, --listenon
Specify a specific IP address for bgpd to listen on, rather than its default
of ``0.0.0.0`` / ``::``. This can be useful to constrain bgpd to an internal
address, or to run multiple bgpd processes on one host.
.. option:: -n, --no_kernel
Do not install learned routes into the linux kernel. This option is useful
for a route-reflector environment or if you are running multiple bgp
processes in the same namespace. This option is different than the --no_zebra
option in that a ZAPI connection is made.
.. option:: -S, --skip_runas
Skip the normal process of checking capabilities and changing user and group
information.
.. option:: -e, --ecmp
Run BGP with a limited ecmp capability, that is different than what BGP
was compiled with. The value specified must be greater than 0 and less
than or equal to the MULTIPATH_NUM specified on compilation.
.. option:: -Z, --no_zebra
Do not communicate with zebra at all. This is different than the --no_kernel
option in that we do not even open a ZAPI connection to the zebra process.
.. option:: -s, --socket_size
When opening tcp connections to our peers, set the socket send buffer
size that the kernel will use for the peers socket. This option
is only really useful at a very large scale. Experimentation should
be done to see if this is helping or not at the scale you are running
at.
