Sample Config File

Below is a sample configuration file for the zebra daemon.

     !
     ! Zebra configuration file
     !
     hostname Router
     password zebra
     enable password zebra
     !
     log stdout
     !
     !
     

'!' and '#' are comment characters. If the first character of the word is one of the comment characters then from the rest of the line forward will be ignored as a comment.

     password zebra!password
     

If a comment character is not the first character of the word, it's a normal character. So in the above example '!' will not be regarded as a comment and the password is set to 'zebra!password'.
