Starting mrouted
You can start mrouted from the HP-UX prompt or from within a shell
script by issuing the following command:
/etc/mrouted [-p] [-c
config_file
] [-d
debug_level
]
The -p option disables pruning by overriding the pruning on statement
within the /etc/mrouted.conf configuration file. You must use this
option for testing purposes only.
The -c option overrides the default configuration file
/etc/mrouted.conf. Use
config_file
to specify an alternate
configuration file.
The -d
debug_level
option specifies the debug level.
debug_level
can
be in the range 0 to 3. To know more about
debug_level
values, type man
1M mrouted at the HP-UX prompt.
By default, mrouted always writes warning and error messages to the
system log daemon. You can retrieve these messages from the system log
file, syslog.log, located in the /var/adm/syslog directory.
For convenience in sending signals, mrouted writes its pid to the
/var/tmp/mrouted.pid file upon startup.
