Chapter3 Managing ITP Networks Using SGM
Editing an ITP Route Table File
If you enter a new mask that is more restrictive than the destination point code,
SGM asks if you want to adjust the point code automatically based on the new
mask:
•Click Yes if you want to adjust the point code. For example, if the point code
is 7.7.7, and you enter the new mask 7.255.0, SGM automatically adjusts the
point code to 7.7.0.
•Click No if you do not want to adjust the point code:
–
If you modified an existing mask, SGM restores the previous mask.
–
If you entered an entirely new mask, SGM leaves this field blank.
Step5 The Cost field displays the cost of the route to the destination, relative to other
routes. To edit the cost, select a cost from the drop-down list box in this field. The
valid costs range from 1 (lowest cost and highest priority) through 9 (highest cost
and lowest priority).
Note If you configure two routes to the same device and do not specify a cost
for one of them, then the cost for that device defaults automatically to 5.
The default cost appears here in the Cost column, and in the output of
the show cs7 route command.
Similarly, if you add a new line to this table and leave the Cost column
blank, SGM automatically enters a default cost of 5.
Linksets with the same cost form a combined linkset. Do not specify
more than two linksets with the same cost, under the same destination
point code and mask.
Step6 The Destination Linkset field displays the destination linkset associated with the
destination point code. The destination linkset is also known as the output linkset.
To edit the destination linkset, select a destination linkset from the drop-down list
box in this field.
Step7 (Optional) The QoS field displays the quality of service (QoS) class of the route,
as configured by the network administrator. To edit the QoS class of the route,
select a QoS class from the drop-down list box in this field.
When you change the QoS class for a route, SGM automatically changes the QoS
classes for the all other routes in that route set (that is, all other routes with the
same Destination Point Code) to the new class.
