Edit the FRR configuration file

To configure dynamic routing on the command line of the NGFW Engine, edit the Free Range Routing (FRR) configuration file.

The protocol-specific configuration file (for example, ospfd.conf) must exist in the /data/config/frr directory, and the routing daemon must be running before you configure dynamic routing using vtysh. Otherwise, vtysh cannot save protocol-specific configurations.

Steps

  1. Open an SSH connection to the command line of the NGFW Engine.
  2. To create empty protocol-specific configuration files, enter, for example: 
    sg-dynamic-routing sample-config ripd ospfd bgpd
  3. To start the routing daemon, enter: 
    sg-dynamic-routing restart|force-reload
  4. To start the FRR command shell, enter: 
    vtysh
