LAG upgrade - 20: optimizing custom member port parameter entries

Updated #custom #member #port #parameter agent mapper routines in LAG module. The agent #iterator routines and #mapper #routine has been updated to use standard #member #port entry based #indexing. This will access the custom member port entries by using the #native #indexing. This removes references to the custom member port indexing used earlier. The custom member port parameter entries has been embedded in the standard member port entries. The custom aggregator parameter entries holds the #attributes like the #port-aggregator-group, #LACP-enable, #LACP-passive-enable, #LACP-slow-timer-enable, #dynamic-key-management-enable, etc ...

GMPLS update - 52: optimizing standard in-segment entries

Optimized #standard #in-segment #entries in GMPLS module. This #removes the #attributes like #in-coming #label, #pointer to in-coming #label and #pointer to #traffic #parameter.

GMPLS update - 50: corrections in standard MPLS tunnel API

Added #corrections in the #standard #MPLS #external #API in GMPLS module. The #cross-connect based #index #removal #step has been added in the tunnel removal routine.

GMPLS update - 48: optimizing standard extended GMPLS tunnel entries

Optimized #standard #extended GMPLS #tunnel entries in GMPLS module. #Reduced some of the #address #variables used on the GMPLS tunnel entries and #removed the pointer to the #extra #parameter. The addresses used for the #RSVP #Notify mechanism has been reduced. These include the #upstream-notify-recepient, #downstream-notify-recepient, #upstream-notify-request-address and #downstream-notify-request-address. The downstream-notify-request-address is the address sent out in the PATH message for requesting the downstream nodes to sent Notify messages when needed, also the upstream-notify-request-address is the address sent out in the RESV message for requesting the upstream nodes to sent Notify messages when needed. The upstream-notify-recepient is the address received in Notify Request in the PATH message from the upstream - which is the default value used in the corresponding downstream-notify-request-address - similarly the downstream-notify-recepient is the address received in Notify Request in the RESV message from the downstream - which is the default value used in the corresponding upstream-notify-request-address. The upstream-notify-recepient is kept in the #PATH #state-block and downstream-notify-request-address in the #outgoing #PATH #state-block. The downstream-notify-recepient is kept in the #RESV #state-block and upstream-notify-request-address in the #forwarded #RESV #state-block. The extra parameters are not used as extended tunnel entries are already in place.

TED update - 21: optimizing standard TE-Link component link entries

Optimized the variables used in TE-Link #component-link entries and #component-link #bandwidth entries in TED module. The #variable #size used for storing the #bandwidth information has been reduced - in the #component-link entry the #max-reservable-bandwidth keeps maximum available bandwidth on the component-link, also the component-link bandwidth entries keep 8 separate entries on each component-link to keep the current #unreserved-bandwidth available for each of the 8 #priority values on the component-link. The #max-reservable-bandwidth is a configurable parameter by the operator, but the #unreserved-bandwidth is dynamic value currently set on the component-link.

TED update - 20: adding new TE-Link switching-capability index

Added new #indexing on the #TE-Link #based on the #switching-type and #lsp-encoding-type in the TED module. This will enable to #look-up TE-Link based on the #switching-capability-descriptors available on the link. This will be useful when computing #path for #LSPs of specific #switching-type and #encoding-type. The switching-capability-descriptor of a TE-Link is #derived from it's underlying #component #links. This enables to create #TE-Links #over higher capacity #server-layers e.g. #Ethernet capable TE-Links created over #SDH / #OTN server-layers.

TED update - 19: adding new TE-Link reservation priority based index

Added #new #priority #based #indexing on the #TE-Link #reservations in the TED module. This will enable to #query TE-Link reservations #based on their #priority. This will be useful when #preemptable #bandwidth has to be calculated from the existing reservations on a TE-Link. When preemption is enabled and #unreserved #bandwidth is not being available, some of the existing #lower #priority reservations will be released and used to fulfill the current requirement.

TED update - 18: adding new TE-Link address based index

Added #new #address #based #indexing on the #TE-Link in the TED module. This will enable to #query TE-Links #based on their configured #address (i.e. #IPv4, #IPv6 or #un-numbered). This will be useful in many parts of the system as external to the stack the TE-Links are always identified by their assigned address. Support has been added for #multi-address scenario on the same TE-Link.

GMPLS update - 47: optimizing standard extended GMPLS tunnel error entries

Hard-linked #standard #extended GMPLS #tunnel #error entries through #standard MPLS #tunnel #entries in GMPLS module. This will indicate the #extended #tunnel #attributes like #error-type - the kind of error happened on the tunnel (e.g. local configuration error, local dynamic state - shortage of resources, path not found - issues, network protocol failures, etc ...), #error-time, #error-reporter, related #error-tlvs and #error-description, etc ... This will reduce the memory requirement associated with the GMPLS error entries. The hard-linked GMPLS error entries enables accessing them directly from the standard MPLS tunnel entries.
