Bridge port update - 12: PCP encoding/decoding admin flag

Added changes in ethernet module for handling the #bridge #port level #admin #flag for #PCP #mapping. The port level PCP mapping flag will #enable or #disable the PCP encoding/decoding #configuration on the port.  This flag will enable #port level #priority #code #point ( #PCP ) #encoding configuration entries and #decoding configuration entries on provider bridges. By default, #CoS and #DEI values as per the translation tables defined in #802-1Q-2011 will be used which can be further fine tuned by the operator.

Bridge port update - 11

Added changes in ethernet module for handling the #bridge #port level #admin #flag for #TC #mapping. The port level TC mapping flag will #enable or #disable the #CoS to #traffic-class #mapping #configuration on the port.  The TC mapping will enable to map CoS on frames to a traffic-class. The mapped traffic class will be used for effective #QoS treatment on the frame. By default, all CoS values are mapped to traffic-class '0' and #best-effort ( #BE ) treatment is provided.

Bridge port update - 10

Added changes in ethernet module for handling the #bridge #port level #admin #flag for #CoS #mapping. The port level CoS mapping flag will #enable or #disable the #CoS #mapping #configuration on the port.  The CoS remapping will enable to map CoS on frames to a different CoS value. The remapped CoS will be used for effective #QoS treatment on the frame. By default, for a frame the ingress CoS is considered as the #effective #CoS for QoS handling.

Bridge CoS update - 16

Added corrections for referencing #general #bridge #port #CoS #configuration through the parent #bridge #port in ethernet module. The hard-linked port CoS configuration entries enables accessing them directly from the standard port entries.

Bridge port update - 9

Added back-end #update #routine for #extended #bridge #port parameter #admin #flags in ethernet module. This will control port level attributes like #CoS, #TC and #PCP #mapping, #service #UNI, #ENNI, #VUNI and #spanning-tree enable. These attributes are checked for their correctness and valid ones are updated in the back-end structures.

Bridge port update - 8

Added #bridge #port #level #admin #flags #handler in ethernet module. These flags control parameters like #CoS, #TC and #PCP #mapping, #service #UNI, #ENNI, #VUNI and #spanning-tree operations on the respective port.

Bridge CoS update - 13

Added changes in ethernet module for initializing #port #level #priority #code #point ( #PCP ) #encoding configuration entries and #decoding configuration entries on provider bridges. These changes will initialize the configuration entries with default #CoS and #DEI values as per the translation tables defined in #802-1Q-2011. By default the ingress frame CoS is used unaltered.

Bridge CoS update - 9

Added changes in ethernet module for traversing #port #level #CoS #remapping configuration. The new changes enables to #traverse through the optimized configuration entries. The #agent #framework uses these for #GETNEXT functionality among the configuration entries.

Bridge CoS update - 8

Added changes in ethernet module for traversing #port #level #effective ( #remapped ) #CoS to #traffic-class #mapping configuration.

Bridge CoS update - 7

Added optimizations for #port #level #priority #code #point ( #PCP ) #decoding configuration on provider bridges. This will reduce the memory requirement for supporting PCP decoding configuration. The configuration will decide the effective #CoS and #drop #eligibility ( #DEI ) of the incoming frame based on ingress CoS. Based on the priority code point row selected in the PCP table on the port, the CoS and DEI decoded on the frames will change. By default, for a frame the ingress CoS is used unaltered.

Bridge CoS update - 5

Added optimizations for #port #level #priority #code #point ( #PCP ) #encoding configuration on provider bridges. This will reduce the memory requirement for supporting PCP encoding configuration. The configuration will decide the CoS encoded on the outgoing frames, based on the #customer #CoS and #drop #eligibility ( #DEI ) of the frame. Based on the priority code point row selected in the PCP table on the port, the CoS encoded on the frames will change. By default, for a frame the egress CoS is used unaltered.

Bridge CoS update - 4

Added optimizations for #port #level #service #access #priority #remapping configuration on provider bridges. This will reduce the memory requirement for supporting service access priority remapping configuration. The service access priority remapping will enable to map #customer #CoS on frames to a different CoS value at the provider network border - either on a customer edge port ( #CEP ) or a customer network port ( #CNP ) -, while receiving data from the customer network. This is useful to request priority handling of customer frames in the provider network. The remapped CoS will be used int the provider network for effective #QoS treatment on the frame. By default, for a frame the ingress CoS is used unaltered.

Bridge CoS update - 3

Added optimizations for #port #level #access #priority #remapping configuration on customer bridges. This will reduce the memory requirement for supporting access priority remapping configuration. The access priority remapping will enable to map #customer #CoS on frames to a different CoS value at the customer domain border, while sending data to the provider network. This is useful when the #SLA with the #provider #network requires specific kind of CoS mapping for required QoS treatment. The remapped CoS will be used int the provider network for effective #QoS treatment on the frame. By default, for a frame the egress CoS is send unaltered.

Bridge CoS update - 2

Added optimizations for  #port #level #effective ( #remapped ) #CoS to #traffic-class #mapping in ethernet module. The optimization reduces memory used for maintaining this configuration in ethernet module. The traffic-class decides the #QoS treatment for ethernet frames. The remapped CoS which was deduced from the ingress CoS is used for deciding the traffic-class to be applied. By default - without any configuration present, all CoS values are mapped to same default traffic-class 0.

Added optimizations for #port #level #CoS #remapping configuration. This will reduce the memory requirement for supporting CoS remapping configuration. The CoS remapping will enable to map CoS on frames to a different CoS value. The remapped CoS will be used for effective #QoS treatment on the frame. By default, for a frame the ingress CoS is considered as the #effective #CoS for QoS handling.
