Nodes Table
Nodes Table
The Nodes Table defines node types the NMT does not support. Future switches, other Cisco WAN or
feeder platforms, or other vendor switches can be defined in this table.
Note The Nodes table is not translated from CWM or to WANDL.
Network Settings
The model settings page contains global parameters used in defining settings in the network.
Table 3-14 describes the global parameters used to define network settings.

Parameter Modeling Effect
BPX/IGX SwSw Release The switch software release to assign to all BPX and IGX switches in the network.
Specific sites can override this global value if they have an entry in the swrel field
in the site table.
MGX SwSw Release The switch software release to assign to all MGX switches in the network.
Specific sites can override this global value if they have an entry in the swrel field
in the site table.
V Delay Limit Maximum delay (in ms) that can be sustained for this connection type, if
applicable.
C Delay Limit Maximum delay (in ms) that can be sustained for this connection type, if
applicable.
