VTYSH(1) Version 0.96.5 VTYSH(1)NAMEvtysh - a integrated shell for Quagga routing software
SYNOPSISvtysh [ -b ]
vtysh [ -c command ]
DESCRIPTIONvtysh 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 inte‐
grated 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 rout‐
ing software and older Quagga versions. This will be removed in
future.
-h, --help
Display a usage message on standard output and exit.

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.
