Specifies a cost-per-unit-time to be associated with the transmission group (TG). A value of 0 is the least expensive cost per unit of time and 255 is the most expensive.
TG characteristics are not valid with DYNTYPE=VN because DYNTYPE=VN defines the dynamic PU used for a VN connection, not the virtual routing node (VRN) and its associated TGs. The TG created with the dynamic PU is not reported to Topology and Routing Services and is not involved in route calculation. To determine the weight of the TGs associated with the VRN, specify the TG characteristics in the XCA major node or the NCP major node.
