addpnport
Add Port—adds a UNI or NNI port through PNNI.
The addpnport command lets you pre-configure an NNI or UNI port. The purpose of pre-configuring
is that it may best serve the configuration strategy of some companies.
To pre-configure a port means you add it on the PXM45 before you add it on the service module (by
using addport). Eventually, you must run addport on t he service module. The addpnport command is
optional because when you create the port by us ing addport (and a resource partition by using addpart),
PNNI automatically creates the port. Theref ore, after yo u create the port on the servi ce modu le, usin g
the addpnport command is not necessary.
After you pre-configure the port through addpnport at the controller, its administrative and operationa l
states are down by default. Use uppnport to bring up the port.
The addpnport command only creates the port. Th e P N NI c ommands for configuring the operati o na l
characteristics of the port are cnfpnportrange, cnfpnportcac, and cnfpnportsig. If the configuration
you specify with these commands co nflict with the values you specify on th e service module through the
addport or cnfport commands, these PNNI com m an ds override the slave-side configuration.
Note that the format of the PNNI logical port and the format of the logical port on the slave s ide map to
each other. See AXSM Format and PNNI Format, page 6-4, for a description of this mapping.
