Chapter 10 Managing PNNI Routing

The output in a tabular format includes the following information:

Field

 

 

Description

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Port

 

 

The local port number.

 

 

Hello

The state of the Hello protocol on this link.

State

 

 

 

“twoWayInside”

 

An inside link (within the peer group). The

 

 

 

 

 

node on the other side was discovered

 

 

 

correctly.

 

 

 

 

 

“commonOutside”

 

An outside link (to a node on a different peer

 

 

 

group). The node on the other side was

 

 

 

discovered correctly and a common parent

 

 

 

peer group was identified

 

 

 

 

 

“twoWay”

 

A logical link. The logical node on the other

 

 

 

side was discovered correctly.

 

 

 

Nbr

Indicates the state of the Neighboring Peer FSM that is used for

State

database synchronization. The state ‘full’ indicates that the nodes’

 

databases are in-synch. The state ‘remote’ indicates that the

 

synchronization protocol is not yet performed on this link. However,

 

it could be that there is a parallel link from a different slot of this

 

switch going to the same neighbor, and the synchronization is done

 

 

 

over that link.

 

This field is not applicable for outside links, as database

 

synchronization is not performed between peer groups.

 

 

Link

Indicates the status of the link between this node and its neighbor. A

Status

uni-directional link indicates that the Nbr State is not full. This could

 

be due to another parallel link to the same neighbor (and the

 

synchronization is done over that link), or due to a problem in the

 

 

synchronization protocol.

 

This field is not applicable for outside links, as database

 

synchronization is not performed between peer groups.

 

 

Active

For an Inside Link or Logical Link, this indicates the time in seconds

Time

that the neighbor’s database is synchronized (i.e. the Nbr State is

 

 

 

‘full’).

 

For an Outside Link, it indicates the time in seconds since the Hello

 

reached a “commonOutside” state.

 

 

Remote

This is the port ID at the other end.

Port

 

 

 

 

 

Remote

The 22 bytes node ID of the remote node.
