CS 4594 Broadband PNNI Signaling
PNNI • PNNI = Private Network to Network Interface • Can be used for both public and private networks
Two Parts of PNNI • Topology Distribution Protocol: Establish structure on an unstructured network • Signaling Protocol: Establish a connection in a network
PNNI – ATM Forum From the ATM Forum af-pnni-0055.000: PNNI consists of: • A protocol is defined for distributing topology information between switches and clusters of switches. This information is used to compute paths through the network. A hierarchy mechanism ensures that this protocol scales well for large world-wide ATM networks. A key feature of the PNNI hierarchy mechanism is its ability to automatically configure itself in networks in which the address structure reflects the topology. PNNI topology and routing is based on the well-known link-state routing technique. • A second protocol is defined for signaling, that is message flows used to establish point-to-point and point-to-multipoint connections across the ATM network. This protocol is based on the ATM Forum UNI signaling, with mechanisms added to support source routing, crankback, and alternate routing of call setup requests in case of connection setup failure.
Functions of the PNNI routing protocol • Discovery of neighbors and link status. • Election of PGLs. (Peer Group Leader) • Construction of the routing hierarchy. • Synchronization of topology databases.
Hello – establishes local topology • Each node exchanges Hello packets with its immediate neighbors and thereby determines its local state information. This state information includes the identity and peer group membership of the node’s immediate neighbors, and the status of its links to the neighbors. Each node then bundles its state information in “PNNI Topology State Elements” (PTSEs), which are reliably flooded throughout the peer group.

Structure • Peer Groups are determined by addressing. • Address levels are determined by how many bits are allocated to the peer group part of the address. • Peer Group Leaders are determined by election. • Reachability information is determined by exchange of information among nodes. • Uplinks are established using physical links between members of different peer groups.

Basic Concepts • Designated Transit List (DTL) • DTLs map out routes. • DTLs work at different levels. • A stack keeps track of the levels. • Call SETUP Message • is passed to next node. • is saved at nodes that add new routes.
Some Problems • The link between A.3.3 and B.1.2 is blocked (even though PNNI routing says it is OK) • The link between A.3.3 and B.2.3 cannot support the high peak cell rate requested.
