PNNI Routing

Multi-level PNNI Topology

Do the same on switch SWB3:

B3 # set pnnipglelection

NodeIndex(1) :

LeadershipPriority(0) : 205

< Highest priority in election process

ParentNodeIndex(0) : 2

< Node 2 will represent the peer group B in the parent group

InitTime(15) :

OverrideDelay(30) :

ReElectTime(15) :

B3 #

7.

Use the

show pnnipglelection

command to verify that switches SWA3 and SWB3 have become

the PGLs of their respective peer groups. For example, on switch SWA3, enter the following:

A3 # show pnnipglelection

NodeIndex(1) :

PGL Election Information

================================================================================

Node Index : 1

Leadership Priority : 100

Parent Node Index : 2

Init Time : 15 secs

Override Delay : 30 secs

Reelect Time : 15 secs

Time Stamp : 228588

Election State : Operating as PGL

< Switch SWA3 has become PGL of group A

Preferred PGL : 50:a0:39:00:00:00:00:00:00:00:00:00:a3:87:0b:00:20:d4:28

8.

Physically connect switch SWA3 to SWB3 to establish connectivity between peer groups A and B.

9.

Use the

show pnnilink

command to check the connectivity between the peer groups. In the

following example,

show pnnilink

is entered on switch SWA3 and shows a link to switch SWB3

(SWB3’s IP address is 206.61.237.23):

A3 # show pnnilink

Num(ALL) :

Num Port Node Remote Node Hello State Link Type

< Physical link to switch SWB3

4 -- 2 N/A 2WayInside Horizontal Link to/from LGN

< Logical link between the switches

Note

Notice that the IP address entry for the logical link between the LGNs is N/A (Not
Applicable). Logical entities do not have IP addresses.
