PNNI Operational Status

The operational status of a physical node is always 'up'. The operational status of a logical node may be either 'up' or 'down'. It will be up, if the logical node is active, i.e. the lower level node is PGL, and the logical node is LGN. This is determined by the Peer Group Leader Election (PGLE) protocol between the nodes at the lower level Peer Group.

To show the operational status of a node use the following command. If the level parameter is omitted, the operational status of all levels will be displayed.

Command: M15-155s8:/>route pnni config oper show [<level>]

Output: Admin Status:

Level 1 - Up

Level 2 - Up

Level 3 - Down

Level 4 - Down

Level 5 - Down

Note: The operational status cannot be set by the user. The user determines the administrative status, and the operational status is determined by the lower level PGLE protocol.

PNNI Peer Group ID

Showing PNNI peer group ID

Use the following command to display the PNNI peer group ID.

Command: M15-155s8:/>route pnni config pg_id show [<level>]

Output: Peer group id:

Level 1 - Configure [Current]: 38.39.04.00.00.00.00.00.00.00.00.00.00.00 [ 38.39.04.00.00.00.00.00.00.00.00.00.00.00 ]

Level 2 - 30.39.00.00.00.00.00.00.00.00.00.00.00.00

Level 3 - 28.39.03.00.00.00.00.00.00.00.00.00.00.00

Level 4 - 20.39.03.00.00.00.00.00.00.00.00.00.00.00

Level 5 - 18.39.03.00.00.00.00.00.00.00.00.00.00.00

The PNNI peer group ID is used when the PNNI protocol constructs the peer groups in which topology databases are being synchronized. A link between two neighbors that share the same peer group ID is considered an inside link, and a link between 2 PNNI nodes that don’t have the same peer group is considered an outside link. Topology databases are synchronized only over inside links.
