Command Reference

tripd command usage and reference

The tripd configuration is inspired by the Cisco IOS command line interface, where the configuration syntax is the same as the interactive command syntax.

You can read a basic example configuration tripd.conf at the root of this project.

Context tree

The configuration is organized in a tree of contexts

• root base context
  • config context
    • prefix list context: where you define your prefixes to announce
    • trip context: where you define your ITAD, ID and LSs to peer with

Common commands

Some commands are common between contexts
