ripctl [-s socket] command [argument ...]

The ripctl program controls the ripd(8) daemon. Commands may be abbreviated to the minimum unambiguous prefix; for example, s n for show neighbor.

The following options are available:

The following commands are available:

Insert the learned routes into the Forward Information Base a.k.a. the kernel routing table.
Remove the learned routes from the Forward Information Base a.k.a. the kernel routing table. Decoupling the FIB from an RIP router may create routing loops and could cause major routing issues.
Disable verbose debug logging.
Enable verbose debug logging.
[destination | filter]
Show the Forwarding Information Base. destination can be specified to show the route matching a destination IP address. filter can be any of the following:

Show only connected routes.
Show only interfaces.
Show only RIP routes.
Show only static routes.

connected, rip, and static may be specified together.

Show details for all interfaces.
