NAME
vtysh - a integrated shell for Quagga routing software
SYNOPSIS
vtysh [ -b ]
vtysh [ -c command ]
DESCRIPTION
vtysh is a integrated shell for
Quagga routing engine.
OPTIONS
Options available for the vtysh command:
- -b, --boot
- Execute boot startup configuration. It makes sense only if
integrated config file is in use (not default in Quagga). See Info
file Quagga for more info.
- -c, --command command
- Specify command to be executed under batch mode. It behaves
like -c option in any other shell - command is executed and
vtysh exits.
It's useful for gathering info from Quagga routing software from
shell scripts etc.
- -e, --execute command
- Alias for -c. It's here only for compatibility with Zebra
routing software and older Quagga versions. This will be removed in
future.
- -h, --help
- Display a usage message on standard output and
exit.
ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES
- VTYSH_PAGER
- This should be the name of the pager to use. Default is
more.
FILES
- /usr/local/etc/vtysh.conf
- The default location of the vtysh config file.
- /usr/local/etc/Quagga.conf
- The default location of the integrated Quagga routing engine
config file if integrated config file is in use (not
default).

BUGS
Running the command which outputs large amount of data
through pager ("show ip ospf database", "show ip bgp" etc. in big
networks) will cause daemon to be unresponsive until vtysh returns
back to the prompt.
vtysh eats bugs for breakfast. If you have food for the
