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.
The Nodes table is not translated from CWM or to WANDL.

Description and Comments
Name of the node type.
If the NodeType is closely based on an existing type
supported by NMT, enter that type here. Otherwise,
enter 'GENERIC'.

Number of circuit lines allowed on the node.
Number of packet lines (trunks) allowed on the node. PTLS
Number of connections allows in each PTL connected
to this node type.
Maximum number of connections that can terminate
on this type of node.
Number of connections that can pass through the
node type without termination
Number of PNNI connections that can terminate or
pass through (via) at this node type.

Modeling Effect
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.
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.
