In-depth analysis of using Linux + Zebra to build a soft route system (1)

Basic settings of Zebra

Zebra has no background interaction program.RoutingManagement Program. It controls other software modules and provides master ports for interaction with customers. The Zebra RPM kit contains a complete reference setting file. However, you only need to create a/etc/zebra. conf file that includes the following content to set Zebra.

The simplest Zebra setting file:

The following is a code snippet:

 
 

  
  
hostname speedmetal  
  
  
 
  
  
password zebra  
  
  
 
  
  
enable password zebra 
 
 

Whenever you enter the interactive setting mode, the Hostname command specifies the name of the vro. This name can be set at will, and may not match the host name. The Password command determines the logon Password of the interactive Zebra terminal. After/etc/zebra. conf is created, run the following command to start the zebra non-Background interaction program:

The following is a code snippet:

 
 

  
  
# service zebra start 
 
 

Now we can enter the Zebra Interactive dialog mode by connecting to port 2601 of the machine. Zebra dialog mode instance:

The following is a code snippet:

 
 

  
  
[root@speedmetal zebra]# telnet 127.0.0.1 2601  
  
  
 
  
  
Trying 127.0.0.1...

We can easily understand this, because we can click on the screen? Key to understand the meaning of a command at any time. If you have experience configuring the Cisco router, I believe this setting process is no stranger. So far, we have only completed the setting and running of Zebra, and the setting of various protocols has not started yet. If you are ready, let's continue.
