Logical Node, Port, and Signaling Commands
This chapter describes primarily the PNNI commands that apply to PNNI ports. It also contains some
node-level commands, such as a variety of commands that relate to node-level congestion thresholds. In
general, the commands let you create, delete, display logical elements, and view and clear statistics. The
commands pertain to the following areas of PNNI port function:
• Address assignment
• Address filtering
• Address ping
• Signalling
• Control Channels
• Defaults for bandwidth parameters
• Connection-related commands—either or both SVCs and SPVCs
• Port resource commands
• IISP interfaces
• ILMI Port Management
• SSCOP (service-specific connection-oriented protocol)
• Congestion thresholds for the node and for individual ports
Types of Address
Three types of local addresses exist:
• ILMI-registered addresses
• User-provisioned addresses via addaddr
• Host application addresses, such as AESA-Ping, PNNI logical group numbers, IP connectivity,
node-level SPVC prefix, and so on
