Using the FreeRangeRouting Snap

After installing the Snap, the priviledged plug need to be connected:

snap connect frr:network-control ubuntu-core:network-control

Enabling/Disabling FreeRangeRouting Daemons

By default (at this time), all FreeRangeRouting daemons will be enabled on installation. If you want to disable a specific daemon, then use the systemctl commands

ie for ospf6d (OSPFv3):

systemctl disable snap.frr.ospf6d.service
systemctl enable snap.frr.ospf6d.service

The daemons are: ripd, ripngd, ospfd, ospf6d, isisd, bgpd, pimd, zebra

Commands defined by this snap

• frr.vtysh: FreeRangeRouting VTY Shell (configuration tool)
• frr.version: Returns output of zebra --version to display version and configured options
• frr.readme: Returns this document cat README_usage.md

and for debugging defined at this time (May get removed later - do not depend on them). These are mainly intended to debug the Snap

• frr.zebra-debug: Starts zebra daemon in foreground
• frr.ripd-debug: Starts ripd daemon in foreground

• frr.vtysh displays --MORE-- on long output. How to suppress this?
  • Define VTYSH_PAGER to cat (default is more). (Ie add export VTYSH_PAGER=cat to the end of your .profile)
