PNNI Routing Multi-level PNNI Topology
2. Add a third node (at level 64) to either switch SWA3 or SWB3.
3. Use the set pnnipglelection command to designate the switch’s second node (not third) as the
PGL for the parent peer group, and specify the third node as the parent node of the second.
4. Perform steps 2 and 3 for switches with the same role in the other level 72 parent groups.
These steps create a grandparent group at level 64, and establishes a virtual link between the LGNs that represent the
LGNs at level 72 (see Figure 4-3).
