+.. |DAEMON| replace:: bgpd
+
+SYNOPSIS
+========
+|DAEMON| |synopsis-options-hv|
+
+|DAEMON| |synopsis-options|
+
+DESCRIPTION
+===========
+|DAEMON| is a routing component that works with the FRRouting routing engine.
+
+OPTIONS
+=======
+OPTIONS available for the |DAEMON| command:
+
+.. include:: common-options.rst
+
+.. option:: -p, --bgp_port <port>
+
+ Set the bgp protocol's port number. When port number is 0, that means do not
+ listen bgp port.
+
+.. option:: -l, --listenon
+
+ Specify a specific IP address for bgpd to listen on, rather than its default
+ of ``0.0.0.0`` / ``::``. This can be useful to constrain bgpd to an internal
+ address, or to run multiple bgpd processes on one host.
+
+.. option:: -n, --no_kernel
+
+ Do not install learned routes into the linux kernel. This option is useful
+ for a route-reflector environment or if you are running multiple bgp
+ processes in the same namespace. This option is different than the --no_zebra
+ option in that a ZAPI connection is made.
+
+.. option:: -e, --ecmp
+
+ Run BGP with a limited ecmp capability, that is different than what BGP
+ was compiled with. The value specified must be greater than 0 and less
+ than or equal to the MULTIPATH_NUM specified on compilation.
+
+.. option:: -Z, --no_zebra
+
+ Do not communicate with zebra at all. This is different than the --no_kernel
+ option in that we do not even open a ZAPI connection to the zebra process.
+
+.. option:: -s, --socket_size
+
+ When opening tcp connections to our peers, set the socket send buffer
+ size that the kernel will use for the peers socket. This option
+ is only really useful at a very large scale. Experimentation should
+ be done to see if this is helping or not at the scale you are running
+ at.
+
+LABEL MANAGER
+-------------
+
+.. option:: -I, --int_num
+
+ Set zclient id. This is required when using Zebra label manager in proxy mode.
+
+FILES
+=====
+
+|INSTALL_PREFIX_SBIN|/|DAEMON|
+ The default location of the |DAEMON| binary.
+
+|INSTALL_PREFIX_ETC|/|DAEMON|.conf
+ The default location of the |DAEMON| config file.
+
+$(PWD)/|DAEMON|.log
+ If the |DAEMON| process is configured to output logs to a file, then you
+ will find this file in the directory where you started |DAEMON|.
+
+.. include:: epilogue.rst
