Configuring PNNI Node Parameters
Remote node name.......8950_SF
Remote node id.........56:160:47.00918100000100036b5e31b3.00036b5e31b3.01
Upnode id..............0:0:00.000000000000000000000000.000000000000.00
Upnode ATM addr........00.000000000000000000000000.000000000000.00
Common peer group id...00:00.00.0000.0000.0000.0000.0000.00
In the example above, there is no reference to the ATM address for the remote switch named 8950_SF.
However, if the node ID is set to match the ATM address, it will be easy to determine the ATM address
of a remote switch.
To set the PNNI node ID, use the following procedure.
Step 1 Establish a configuration session using a user name with SUPER_GP privileges or higher.
Step 2 Disable PNNI node operation by entering the following command:
8850_LA.7.PXM.a > cnfpnni-node <node-index> -enable false
The node-index uniquely defines a logical PNNI node within the switch. Initially, there is just one logical
PNNI node at the lowest PNNI level, and its index number is 1. If you add a higher level logical node to
the physical node, the first higher level will be numbered two, and the next higher level will be number
three. The node index is a reference to particular logical PNNI process in the node.
The PNNI node ID is configured at the lowest PNNI level, so replace <node-index> with 1.
Note The node ID you enter at the lowest level is used for all levels. PNNI uses a modified version of
the lowest level node ID for upper level nodes.
Step 3 Change the PNNI node ID with the cnfpnni-node command as follows:
8850_LA.7.PXM.a > cnfpnni-node <node-index> [-nodeId PNNIlevel:160:atm-address]
To configure the lowest PNNI level, replace <node-index> with 1. Replace PNNIlevel with the lowest
PNNI level, and replace atm-address with the 20-byte ATM address you want to use. For example:
8850_LA.7.PXM.a > cnfpnni-node 1 -nodeId
56:160:47.00918100000100001a531c2a.00001a531c2a.01
Step 4 Enable PNNI node operation by entering the following command:
8850_LA.7.PXM.a > cnfpnni-node <node-index> -enable true
Replace <node-index> with the value you used when disabling and reconfiguring the PNNI node.
Step 5 To display the PNNI node configuration, enter the command:
8850_LA.7.PXM.a > dsppnni-node
