Managing Parallel PNNI Links PNNI Routing
Use the set pnniinterface command to set the administrative weight of a physical link originating from a particular
port. The following, is an example of increasing the administrative weight for CBR call setups through the physical
link on port 7a1:
SmartSwitch # set pnniinterface
PortNumber() : 7a1 — Link on port 7a1
AdminWtCBR(5040) : 100 — Set the weight for CBR connections higher on this link

3.3.1 Aggregation Tokens
An aggregation token is associated with each physical PNNI link. The value of the token determines how a physical
link is advertised to the rest of the network. By default, all physical links (even parallel links) use an aggregation token
of zero (0). When physical PNNI links have the same token value, the links are represented as a single logical link
within the parent peer group. For example, no matter how many physical links connect peer groups A and B, they are
represented within the parent group as a single logical link. Using different token values for physical links causes the
links to be represented (and advertised) as separate logical links within the parent group.
Continuing with the earlier example of multi-level topologies, add a second physical PNNI link between peer groups
A and B by physically connecting switch SWA2 to switch SWB2. By setting the aggregation token of this physical
link to a value different from the physical link connecting switches SWA3 and SWB3, a second logical link appears
within the parent group.
For example, the physical link between SWA3 and SWB3 has an aggregation token value of zero (0). Use the
set
pnniinterface
command to change the value of the aggregation token for the physical link between SWA2 and SWB2
to one (1):
SWA2 # set pnniinterface
PortNumber() : 7b2 — Link on switch SWA2 comes from this port
