The script contains convenient wrappers for the XRLs that can be send to the RIP process. In your own script you need to include first utils/xrl_shell_lib.sh and then include rip/tools/xrl_rip_shell_funcs.sh . The RIP process depends on some other processes. See the rtrmgr template files for the process dependency: etc/templates/*.tp The "%modinfi: depends" statements describe the process dependencies. The XRL interaction is more complicated to describe. The rip.tp template contains the XRLs used the rtrmgr to configure the RIP process. However, first you need to read the rtrmgr design document to understand the template syntax. Those, together with the XRL API as described in xrl/interfaces/rip.xif provides all detains you need. In addition, if you enable the "XRLTRACE" environmental variable before running XORP, all transmitted XRLs will be printed (including those used for configuration during startup).
