[daemon startup] Add --dry-run/-C argument to daemons, to check config file syntax
2006-10-04 Oliver Hookins <ohookins@gmail.com>
* bgpd/bgp_main.c: Add configuration check option, with
'-C' rather than '-c' for consistency between daemons.
* isisd/isis_main.c: ditto
* ospf6d/ospf6_main.c: ditto
* ospfd/ospf_main.c: ditto
* ripngd/ripng_main.c: ditto
* vtysh/vtysh_main.c: ditto
* ripd/rip_main.c: Change the config check option to
'-C' and tidy up the code.
* zebra/main.c: ditto
2006-10-04 Stergiakis Alexandros <astergiakis@antcor.com>
* ripd/rip_main.c: This trivial patch introduces a new
command-line option '-c', which instructs zebra/ripd
to check its configuration file for validity, print
any error message, and then exit. This is useful when
the configuration file is edited by hand or otherwise,
and you simply want to validate it without any other
effect.
* zebra/main.c: ditto
