NAME
     pimd - a PIM routing for use with Quagga Routing Suite.

SYNOPSIS
     pimd  [  -dhvZ  ] [ -f config-file ] [ -i pid-file ] [ -z path ] [ -P port-
     number ] [ -A vty-address ] [ -u user ] [ -g group ]

DESCRIPTION
     pimd is a protocol-independent multicast  component  that	works  with  the
     Quagga Routing Suite.

OPTIONS
     Options available for the pimd command:

     -d, --daemon
	    Runs in daemon mode, forking and exiting from tty.

     -f, --config-file config-file
	    Specifies  the config file to use for startup. If not specified this
	    option will likely default to /usr/local/etc/pimd.conf.

     -g, --group group
	    Specify the group to run as. Default is quagga.

     -h, --help
	    A brief message.

     -i, --pid_file pid-file
	    When pimd starts its process identifier is written to pid-file.  The
	    init system uses the recorded PID to  stop	or  restart  pimd.   The
	    likely default is /var/run/pimd.pid.

     -z, --socket path
	    Specify the socket path for contacting the zebra daemon.  The likely
	    default is /var/run/zserv.api.

     -P, --vty_port port-number
	    Specify  the port that the pimd VTY will listen on. This defaults to
	    2611, as specified in /etc/services.

     -A, --vty_addr vty-address
	    Specify the address that the pimd VTY will listen on. Default is all
	    interfaces.

     -u, --user user
	    Specify the user to run as. Default is quagga.

     -v, --version
	    Print the version and exit.

     -Z, --debug_zclient
	    Enable logging information for zclient debugging.

FILES
     /usr/local/sbin/pimd
	    The default location of the pimd binary.

     /usr/local/etc/pimd.conf
	    The default location of the pimd config file.

     /var/run/pimd.pid
	    The default location of the pimd pid file.

     /var/run/zserv.api
	    The default location of the zebra unix socket file.

     $(PWD)/pimd.log
	    If the pimd process is config'd to output logs to a file,  then  you
	    will find this file in the directory where you started pimd.
