r
ramd.conf(4) ramd.conf(4)
on polls the kernel routing table, periodically.
off disables polling of the kernel routing table.
By default, route polling is disabled.
interval poll-interval
;
Specifies how often the kernel routing table is scanned for modifications. The default poll interval is
30 seconds.
By default, route polling is disabled.
remnantholdtime
timer-value;
Specifies the duration, in minutes, for which
ramd retains the remnant routes (routes retrieved from
the kernel upon
ramd startup) in its routing table. On remnant hold timeout,
ramd deletes all IPv6
routes except Static, Direct and Mobile IPv6 routes. By default, remnant hold time is 3 minutes. The
time interval can be in the range of 0-15 minutes.
noflushatexit;
Specifies that ramd does not delete the routes from the kernel when it exits. By default,
ramd
deletes the routes from the kernel when it exits.
traceoptions trace-options;
Specifies the events to be traced. The specified option should be separated by commas, without any
spaces between them. The valid trace options are:
iflist Traces the list of interfaces retrieved from the kernel interface table.
request Traces the route add and delete request by ramd to modify the kernel routing table.
policy Traces the application of route filters and martian routes.
function Traces the functions and their arguments.
timer Traces the timer events.
nostamp Traces the events without time stamp information.
all Traces iflist, request, policy, function, and
timer information.
no No tracing is done.
By default, no tracing is done.
traceoptions [filename [replace][size file-size [k|m]
files numb-of-files][except trace-
options]
;
filename Specifies the name of the trace file.
replace Replaces an existing trace file and the tracing starts at the beginning of the trace file.
By default, trace information is appended to the existing trace file.
size file-size Specifies the maximum size of the trace file. The minimum size remains 10k. The
default trace file size remains 10k.
k|m Represents the size of the file in Kilobyte or Megabyte.
files numb-of-files
Specifies the maximum files. When the trace file reaches the specified size, the files
are renamed as filename.0, filename.1, filename.2, up to the value specified in the
option. The minimum value for files remain 2.
except trace-options
Traces all options, except the options that you specify in this statement.
This traceoptions configuration statement can be used in the ripngd, bgpd and isisd
configuration section.
Preference
The preference value is an arbitrarily assigned value used to determine the order of routes to the same des-
tination in a single routing database. Preference is the value that ramd uses to order the preference of
routes from one protocol or peer to another. The preference value can be set in the RAMD configuration
file in different configuration statements. It can be specified in the interface configuration statement to
prefer one interface over the other. The preference can also be configured for the protocol.
