rsvpd(8)							      rsvpd(8)

NAME
       rsvpd - Resource ReSerVation Protocol (RSVP) daemon

SYNOPSIS
       /usr/sbin/rsvpd [-h] [-d level] [-p] [-l logfile] [-i [version]]

OPTIONS
       Prints  the rsvpd help and exits.  Enables debug mode.  The debug level
       is either all (the default) or a bitmask that specifies	a  combination
       of  the	following  values:  0x01  (SYSTEM)  0x02 (TMR) 0x04 (API) 0x08
       (MSGS) 0x10 (TCNTL) 0x20 (SESS)	0x40  (ROUTE)  Forces  rsvpd  to  stay
       attached	 to  the  terminal  and	 print	error and debug information to
       stderr instead of the log file.	Specifies an alternative log file.  By
       default,	 the log file is /var/rsvp/rsvpd_dbg.log.  Specifies a list of
       Internet Protocol (IP) version numbers.	Possible values are 4,	6,  or
       46.

DESCRIPTION
       The  rsvpd  daemon is the RSVP daemon that starts automatically at boot
       time.  Upon startup, rsvpd performs the following actions:  Writes  its
       PID to the /var/run/rsvpd.pid file.  Detects all existing interfaces on
       the system.  Detaches from the terminal unless the -p option is	speciā€
       fied.  Creates the /var/rsvp directory, if it does not exist.

       The  rsvpd  daemon  logs	 startup, stop, and error messages through the
       syslog function to  the	/usr/var/adm/syslog.dated/date/daemon.log  log
       file.   If  you	specify	 the  -d option, rsvpd logs error messages and
       debugging output to the /var/rsvp/rsvpd_dbg.log log file or  to	a  log
       file specified with the -l logfile option.

       If  you want rsvpd to start automatically at system boot time, place an
       entry for it in the /etc/inet.local file.  For example:

       echo "Starting local Internet services."	 # do  not  let	 RSVP  reserve
       more than 20 Mbit/s on the FDDI interface /usr/sbin/iftcntl fta0 config
       max_total_r 20000000 # start the RSVP daemon /usr/sbin/rsvpd

       If you make any changes to the network interface configuration, restart
       the rsvpd daemon.

       If  you want to use mrouted and rsvpd on a system, start mrouted before
       rsvpd.

       If mrouted is running on your system, rsvpd acts as an  RSVP  multicast
       router. If IPv4/IPv6 forwarding is enabled on the system, rsvpd acts as
       an RSVP IPv4/IPv6 unicast router.

   Restricting RSVP Usage
       To restrict RSVP usage to a limited number of users on the system,  set
       the  permissions	 for  the  /var/rsvp directory as follows: # chmod 750
       /var/rsvp # chgrp staff /var/rsvp

       Those users who cannot access the /var/rsvp directory will be unable to
       request RSVP reservations, use any RSVP API (RAPI) function, or use the
       rsvpstat command.

RESTRICTIONS
       You must be superuser to invoke the rsvpd daemon.

FILES
       The rsvpd log file when debugging is enabled.  This directory  contains
       the  RSVP  API  library UNIX domain socket.  The file that contains the
       process ID of the rsvpd daemon that is currently running.
