Avaya M770 ATM Switch User’s Guide

For example, if you are connecting an Avaya M400 Gate Switch LSA+ module 
which does not support ILMI, to port 8.4.0 on the M770 ATM Switch, you should 
configure port 8.4.0 on the M770 ATM Switch by performing the following steps:

Routing Configuration

When you configure your network you have to decide whether you're going to use 
a single peer group (flat) configuration or multiple peer groups (hierarchy) 
configuration. In case you have devices that do not support PNNI, please refer to 
Section Connecting to another ATM switch which doesn’t support PNNI.

Flat PNNI Configuration

supports PNNI

If you are attaching another ATM switch that supports PNNI ensure that the 
following conditions exist:
•

All switches should have a different ATM prefix (although the network will 
work even if some have the same prefix). To check this in the ATM switch type:
‘

address prefix

’ (on the Master Agent modules).

•

All switches must have a different node_id. By default it will be taken from the 
switch address.

•

All switches, in the same peer group, must have the same pg_id

•

All switches in the same peer group must have the same level. 
To check the PNNI and ATM addresses of the switch, type one of the following 
commands:

M15-155s8:/> summary info

or 

M15-155s8:/> route pnni config show

Changing the PNNI ‘level’ also changes the first byte of the Node ID and the 

Peer Group ID.
