Dynamic Routing Guide

Help for the UM Router command line can be obtained by entering "tnwgd -h". Brief help for the UM Router configuration file can be obtained by entering "tnwgd -d", which prints the DTD contents. (FYI: "tnwgd" stands for "Twenty Nine West Gateway Daemon", a historical name for the UM Router.)
There are two executables for the UM Router, each with it's own man page:
The tnwgd executable can be run interactively from a command prompt or from a script/batch file. For use as a Windows Service, see Tnwgds Man Page.
-d
or --dump-dtd
. After dumping the DTD, tnwgd exits instead of providing UM Router services as usual. See UM Router Configuration DTD for the DTD with comments removed.-v
or --validate
options. After attempting validation, tnwgd exits instead of providing UM Router services as usual. The exit status will be 0 for a configuration file successfully validated by the DTD, and non-zero otherwise.-h
or --help
.-f
or --detach
option is given on Unix, tnwgd instead forks and detaches the child process from the controlling terminal, and the parent exits immediately.
The tnwgds executable is for use as a Windows Service. The service can be installed as a service by the Windows package installer.
Alternatively, the tnwgds executable can be run interactively from a command prompt to install the service or to change certain configuration elements. See UM Daemons as Windows Services for more details.
configfile
parameter is used interactively to configure the UM Router's XML configuration file.-d
