PGL Election Information View
Access: From the Node Configuration Table View, select
the PGL Election Information button.
This view provides Peer Group Leader (PGL)
election information for a PNNI node in the
switching system. The following fields are
provided.
Index
A consecutive number assigned to each item in
the PGL Election table.
LeaderShipPriority
The leadership priority value this node should
advertise in its nodal information group for the
given peer group. Only the value 0 can be used
with nodes that are not capable of being a PGL or
Logical Group Node (LGN). If there is no
configured parent node index or no corresponding
entry in the PNNI Node Table, then the advertised
leadership priority is 0 regardless of this value.
ParentIndex
The local node index used to identify the node
that will represent this peer group at the next
higher level of hierarchy, if this node becomes
PGL. The value 0 indicates that there is no parent
node.
NodeIintTime
The number of seconds this node will delay
advertising its choice of preferred PGL after
having initialized operation and reaching the full
state with at least one neighbor in the peer group.
Delay
The number of seconds a node will wait for itself
to be declared the preferred PGL by unanimous
agreement among its peers. In the absence of
unanimous agreement, this will be the amount of
time that will pass before this node considers a
two-thirds majority as sufficient agreement to
declare itself PGL, abandoning the attempt to get
unanimous agreement.
ReElectTime
The number of seconds that this node will wait
before starting the process of electing a new PGL
after losing connectivity to the current PGL.
PGL State
The state that this node is in with respect to the
PGL election that takes place in the node's peer
group. The values are enumerated in the PGL
state machine as listed below in Table 32.
