+.SH DESCRIPTION
+.B bgpd 
+is a routing component that works with the 
+.B zebra
+routing engine.
+
+
+.SH OPTIONS
+
+.TP
+\fB\-d\fR, \fB\-\-daemon\fR
+Runs in daemon mode, forking and exiting from tty.
+
+.TP
+\fB\-f\fR, \fB\-\-config-file \fR\fIconfig-file\fR

+
+.TP
+\fB\-i\fR, \fB\-\-pid_file \fR\fIpid-file\fR
+When bgpd starts its process idenifier is written to
+\fB\fIpid-file\fR.  The init system uses the recorded PID to stop or
+restart bgpd.  The likely default is \fB\fI/var/run/bgpd.pid\fR.
+
+.TP
+\fB\-p\fR, \fB\-\-bgp_port=\fR\fIport\fR
+Set the port that bgpd will listen to for bgp data.  
+
+.TP
+\fB\-P\fR, \fB\-\-vty_port \fR\fIport-number\fR 
+Specify the port that the bgpd VTY will listen on. This defaults to
+2605, as specified in \fI/etc/services\fR.
+
+.TP
+\fB\-r\fR, \fB\-\-retain\fR
