GMPLS update - 85: updating standard GMPLS actual-path agent mapper routines

Updated #standard GMPLS #actual-path agent mapper routines in GMPLS module. The agent #iterator routines and #mapper #routine has been updated to use standard #actual-path entry based #indexing. This will access the actual-path entries by using the #native #indexing. This removes references to the custom actual-path indexing used earlier. This will reduce the memory requirement associated with the custom actual-path entries. The custom actual-path #entries add support for #attributes like #hop-forward-label and #hop-reverse-label. The #label-type attribute adds support for #media #specific labels ( #Ethernet / #SONET / #SDH / #OTN ) through the #label-type and #label-value attributes.

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.

IF update - 14: updating logical interface stacking handler

Updated the #logical-interface #stack #handling routines in IF module. The #stacking #change #handler routines has been #upgraded for the new data-structure changes. The interface stacking change handler will #check with the #upper and #lower #interface #layer s #on #create / #remove operations for each stack slice. e.g. On adding a #TE-Link over an #ethernet port the port capability (L2/L3/MPLS, bandwidth, MTU, duplexity, etc ...) and it's current state (OPER-STATUS) is checked. On creating the TE-Link TE-Link bandwidth is deduced from the lower layer ethernet port speed/bandwidth. On removing an GMPLS / #MPLS-tunnel, the earlier reserved bandwidth is returned back to it's lower layer #MPLS-interface and #TE-Link. These operations are supported through the interface stack change handler.
