18
19       -d, --daemon
20              Runs in daemon mode, forking and exiting from tty.
21
22       -f, --config-file config-file
23              Specifies  the  config file to use for startup. If not specified
24              this option will likely default to /usr/local/etc/pimd.conf.

31
32       -i, --pid_file pid-file
33              When pimd starts its process identifier is written to  pid-file.
34              The  init  system uses the recorded PID to stop or restart pimd.

37       -z, --socket path

40
41       -P, --vty_port port-number
42              Specify the port that the pimd VTY will listen on. This defaults
43              to 2611, as specified in /etc/services.
44
45       -A, --vty_addr vty-address
46              Specify the address that the pimd VTY will listen on. Default is
