Chapter 2 Getting Started

For the switches that are capable of becoming PGLs (as determine in step 4) do the following:

1Configure the level scope as determine in step 6 for all levels (1-5) using the command:

M15-155s8:/>/route pnni config level set <level (1-5)> <level scope (1-

104)>

2Configure the leadership priority of the node in the lower level to a value greater than 0.

M15-155s8:/>/route pnni config pgle set <level-x (1-4)> 1 <leadership priority (1-205)>

3Configure the Administrative Status of the node in the next higher level to Up

M15-155s8:/>/route pnni config admin set <level-x+1(2-5)> up

Repeat the last step for all levels you have in the hierarchy.

Connecting to an end-station or edge device not supporting ILMI

If you are attaching an end-station or edge device that does not support ILMI then you must configure a route to that device. For example, if you are connecting an Avaya M400 Gate Switch LSA+ module to port 8.4.0 on the M770 ATM Switch, you should configure the static routing by performing the following steps:

[assume that the ATM address of the LSA+ is 39.01.00.00.00.00.00.00.00.00.00.00.00.00.40.od.64.02.de.00]

M15-155s8:/>route add

39.01.00.00.00.00.00.00.00.00.00.00.00.00.40.od.64.02.de 8.4.0

Note: The ATM address should not include the selector.
