Field

Description

 

 

 

 

Orig Node Id

This is the 22 bytes of the node ID.

 

 

Leader

Indicates whether the node thinks it is a Peer Group Leader

 

(PGL).

 

 

Restrict Transit

Indicates if the node advertises itself as restricted transit. If a

 

node is restricted transit, no routes can go through that node.

 

However, setups to/from end systems connected to that node

 

are valid.

 

 

Representation

Indicates the way the node is represented. For LGNs, the

 

representations may be either ‘simple’ or ‘complex’.

 

 

Restrict

Indicates whether the node can branch point-to-multipoint

Branching

calls. This attribute is resource related.

 

 

Non-transit for

Indicates whether the node is ignored when computing

PGL Election

connectivity in the PGL Election algorithm. The node is non-

 

transit for PGLE when it is operating in overload state.

 

 

Reachable

Indicates whether the node is reachable. Reasons for a node to

 

be unreachable are indicated in “General topology

 

information” on page 124.
