Ethernet phy update - 15: phy port cleanup

Added corrections in #provider #bridge ( #PB ) #phy #port #handler routines in bridge module. Updated provider bridge internal LAN ( #ILAN ) - between provider edge port ( #PEP ) and customer network port ( #CNP) - #create / #remove routines. Also updated provider backbone bridge ( #PBB ) provider instance port ( #PIP ) #attach / #detach operations on with the #bridge #component and customer backbone port ( #CBP ) #activation handler.

PBB provider instance port update - 5

Added stubs for provider instance port ( #PIP ) logical #interface #status handler and #stacking handler. Status handler will control the operations on an interface status change as in OPER UP/DOWN/TESTING etc ... On stacking of a higher layer entity similar operations are performed by stacking handler.

PBB virtual instance port update - 2

Modified virtual instance port ( #VIP ) activation routine in bridge module. This will re-sequence the order in which VIP logical port are made #UP / #DOWN. This also validates the associated #PIP port and attaches it to the #I-Component.

PBB provider instance port update - 4

Added provider instance port ( #PIP ) detach routines in bridge module. This will detach the PIP #port from the #I-Component in a #BEB device. This will be used when PIP port is getting #deactivate d or getting #reallocate d between different I-Components.

PBB provider instance port update - 2

Added provider instance port ( #PIP ) attach routines in bridge module. This will attach the PIP #port on to an ethernet #component (same as the #VIP port #I-Component). This routine will find the PIP port #phy and create a new virtual port on the I-Component.

PBB PIP pre-provisioning update - 3

Added hierarchical dependency checks for virtual instance port ( #VIP ) on create routines in bridge module. Modified activation routines of VIP-to-PIP mapping, for passing on state changes to VIP port handlers to act accordingly. This also consolidates the provider instance port ( #PIP ) related operations in VIP handlers.

PBB customer backbone port service mapping update

Added changes for customer backbone port ( #CBP ) service mapping handling in bridge module. This will enable the #I-TAG ed traffic from #I-Component to be carried over #B-VLAN s in #B-Component and out to the provider backbone network.

Added changes in bridge module for CBP stacking of an #IB-BEB bridge . This will stack provider instance port ( #PIP ) logical interface over internal LAN ( #ILAN ) port of CBP.

PBB provider instance port update

Created logical interface and internal phy for provider instance port ( #PIP ) in a provider backbone edge bridge ( #BEB ) in #bridge module. This will encapsulate the customer frames in #I-TAG and assigns a unique service instance. I-TAG will contain the backbone service instance identifier ( #I-SID ) with source and destination mac addresses in the backbone network.
