NAME
       ramd - Route Administration Manager Daemon (RAMD) for IPv6

SYNOPSIS
       config_file] trace_options] [trace_file]

DESCRIPTION
       is a routing daemon that manages routing for IPv6.  handles RIPng, BGP,
       and IS-IS routing protocols.  and are referred to as routing daemons.

       can be configured using the configuration file Upon startup, reads  the
       configuration file and spawns the routing daemons, if it is configured.
       However, the command-line option trace_file is applicable only to

       maintains a routing table in user space and synchronizes	 it  with  the
       HP-UX  kernel  routing table.  periodically checks the kernel interface
       table and the route table for any updates or changes.  It notifies  the
       corresponding daemons about the updates.

   Options
       supports the following command-line options:

       Parses  the  configuration  file for syntax errors and terminates exits
       with a status 0 if the configuration file contains no errors.   If  the
       configuration  file  contains  errors,  exits  with  a  non-zero value.
       prints the configuration file errors, if any, to the standard output.

       Specifies that
	      runs as a normal process and not as a daemon process.

       Parses the configuration file for syntax errors and terminates
	      It leaves a dump file, if the configuration file does  not  have
	      any syntax errors.

       Specifies an alternate configuration file to be used by
	      By default, uses

       Specifies that
	      does not modify the kernel forwarding table.

       Suppresses the
	      messages	of  and	 routing daemons.  Using this option, can sup‐
	      press the informational messages that are	 normally  printed  to
	      the standard output, and log error messages through syslogd(1M).
	      By default, errors are logged in

       Specifies a comma-separated list of trace options to
	      be enabled during startup.  A space cannot  be  entered  between
	      this option and its arguments.

	      This  option  can	 be used to trace events that occur before the
	      configuration file is parsed, such as determining the  interface
	      configuration and reading routes from the kernel.

	      See  the	ramd.conf(4)  manpage  for  information on tracing and
	      valid trace options.

	      The trace options, cannot be  specified  with  the  command-line
	      option.

       trace_file
	      Specifies the name of the file used by the daemon to log tracing
	      information.

   Signal Processing
       The following signals are used to control

       Specifies    to reread the configuration file.  reads the configuration
		    file  and  reconfigures  its  policies.  also checks if it
		    must start and stop the protocol daemons.

       Specifies that the current state of
		    is written to

       Graceful shutdown.
		    On receipt of attempts a graceful shutdown.

		    removes all protocol routes from the HP-UX 11i  v1	kernel
		    routing  table  on	receiving  Interface routes and static
		    routes remain with the retain option.  can be used to ter‐
		    minate with all the routes intact.	It may be necessary to
		    repeat the once or twice if delays its termination.

       Toggle tracing.
		    If tracing is enabled, suspends  tracing  and  closes  the
		    trace  file.  If tracing is disabled, opens the trace file
		    and initiates tracing.  This is useful  for	 moving	 trace
		    files.

		    signal  cannot  be used, if does not enable tracing in the
		    configuration file.

       Checks for interface changes.
		    On receipt	of  rescans  the  kernel  interface  list  for
		    changes.

EXAMPLES
       To  use an alternate configuration file for instead of the default con‐
       figuration file, invoke as follows:

       To log tracing related information to the trace options and  invoke  as
       follows :

       logs  the  trace	 information that is related to the configuration file
       and the kernel interface table, in the log file
