gated.conf(4) gated.conf(4)
used to show optional keywords and parameters. The vertical bar (|) is used to indicate between a choice
of optional parameters. Parentheses (( and )) are used to group keywords and parameters when neces-
sary.
For example, in the syntax description:
[ backbone |(area area )]
The square brackets say that either parameter is optional. The keywords are backbone and area. The
vertical bar indicates that either "backbone"or"area area" may be specified. Since area is in the vari-
able definition style, it is a parameter that needs to be provided.
Statement Grouping
The configuration statements and the order in which these statements appear divide
gated.conf into
options statements, interface statements, definition statements, protocol statements, static statements,
control statements, and aggregate statements. Entering a statement out of order causes an error when
parsing the configuration file.
Two other types of statements do not fit in these categories: %directive statements and %trace state-
ments. These statements provide instructions to the parser and control tracing from the configuration file.
They do not relate to the configuration of any protocol and may occur anywhere in the gated.conf file.
Statement Summary
A summary table of the configuration statements (in the configuration statement summary) lists each
GateD configuration statement by name, identifies the statement type, and provides a short synopsis of
the command function. More detailed definitions and descriptions of each of the eight classes of GateD
statements follow in separate sections.
GateD Configuration Statement Summary
The GateD configuration commands are summarized below. The table lists each command by name,
identifies the statement type, and gives a synopsis of the statement function:
