3. Basic commands

There are five routing daemons in use, and there is one manager daemon. These daemons may be located on separate machines from the manager daemon. Each of these daemons will listen on a particular port for incoming VTY connections. The routing daemons are:

• ripd, ripngd, ospfd, ospf6d, bgpd
• zebra
