+.SH "DESCRIPTION"
+Keepalived provides simple and robust facilities for load\-balancing
+and high\-availability. The load\-balancing framework relies on
+well\-known and widely used Linux Virtual Server (IPVS) kernel module
+providing Layer4 load\-balancing. Keepalived implements a set of
+checkers to dynamically and adaptively maintain and manage
+load\-balanced server pool according their health. Keepalived also
+implements the VRRPv2 protocol to achieve high\-availability with
+director failover.
+
+.SH "OPTIONS"
+.TP
+\fB -f, --use-file\fP=FILE
+Use the specified configuration file. The default configuration file
+is "/etc/keepalived/keepalived.conf".
+.TP
+\fB -P, --vrrp\fP
+Only run the VRRP subsystem. This is useful for configurations that do
+not use IPVS load balancer.
+.TP
+\fB -C, --check\fP
+Only run the healthcheck subsystem. This is useful for configurations
+that use the IPVS load balancer with a single director with no failover.
+.TP
+\fB -l, --log-console\fP
+Log messages to the local console. The default behavior is to log
+messages to syslog.
+.TP
+\fB -D, --log-detail\fP
+Detailed log messages.
+.TP
+\fB -S, --log-facility\fP=[0-7]
+Set syslog facility to LOG_LOCAL[0-7]. The default syslog facility is LOG_DAEMON.
+.TP
+\fB -V, --dont-release-vrrp\fP
+Don't remove VRRP VIPs and VROUTEs on daemon stop. The default
+behavior is to remove all VIPs and VROUTEs when keepalived exits
+.TP
+\fB -I, --dont-release-ipvs\fP
+Don't remove IPVS topology on daemon stop. The default behavior it to
+remove all entries from the IPVS virtual server table on when
+keepalived exits.
+.TP
+\fB -R, --dont-respawn\fP
+Don't respawn child processes. The default behavior is to restart the
+VRRP and checker processes if either process exits.
+.TP
+\fB -n, --dont-fork\fP
+Don't fork the daemon process. This option will cause keepalived to
+run in the foreground.
+.TP
+\fB -d, --dump-conf\fP
+Dump the configuration data.
+.TP
+\fB -p, --pid\fP=FILE
+Use specified pidfile for parent keepalived process. The default
+pidfile for keepalived is "/var/run/keepalived.pid".
+.TP
+\fB -r, --vrrp_pid\fP=FILE
+Use specified pidfile for VRRP child process. The default pidfile for
+the VRRP child process is "/var/run/keepalived_vrrp.pid".
+.TP
+\fB -c, --checkers_pid\fP=FILE
+Use specified pidfile for checkers child process. The default pidfile
+for the checker child process is "/var/run/keepalived_checkers.pid".
+.TP
+\fB -v, --version\fP
+Display the version and exit.
+.TP
+\fB -h, --help\fP
+Display this help message and exit.
