global information distribution
Process that runs on the NP of every LightStream 2020 ATM switch in a network.
GID maintains a database and keeps nodes in the network apprised of changes in
topology such as ports, cards, and nodes being added or removed, and trunks
going up or down. This information is supplied by the ND process. Sometimes
called global information distribution daemon, or GIDD. See also
ND.
