Viewing the PNNI Link Table
The PNNI Link table contains the attributes necessary to describe the
operation of logical links attached to the PSAX system and the relationship
with the neighbor nodes on the other end of the links. Links are attached to a
specific node within the PSAX system. Links may represent horizontal links
between lowest level neighboring peers, outside links, uplinks, or horizontal
links to or from logical group nodes (LGNs).
The PNNI Link table is read-only because the information in the Link table is
discovered dynamically by the PNNI protocol, not manually configured. For
more information, see the ATM Forum Specification,
Private Network-Network
Interface (PNNI 1.0) Specification Version 1.0, af-pnni-0055.000,
Section 5.6.
