LACP upgrade - 1: updated LACP aggregator and member port activation handler

Updated the port status #activation #handler for both #aggregator and the #member-port in #LACP module. The data type references has been corrected to use the new updated type. The activation handlers #cascade the #configuration #state #changes from the #LAG module to LACP module. On moving the port to #active state from LAG module, the #LACP #protocol specific procedures will be #started for these ports. Similarly on putting these ports in to #not-in-service or #not-ready state, the #protocol procedures are #stopped and #cleanup is done for these ports.

LAG upgrade - 27: updating member port activation handler

Updating the #member #port #activation handler in LAG module. The references to the augmented custom member port data-structures has been updated to the standard member port data-structures. This allows to directly use the #standard #member #port data-structure and use the #embedded custom member port data-structure for internal operations. The #status related parameters are kept in the custom data-structure and on member port status #change these are updated as #active / #not-in-service. When ports are not ready to participate in the normal operations because of inconsistency in the applied configuration the state is set as #not-ready.

LAG upgrade - 26: cleaning up LAG management framework for data-structure changes

Added miscellaneous changes in #management #framework in LAG module. #Cleaned up #aggregator #activation handler and added #initialized aggregator #parameters with their #default values. Corrected standard #extended #member #port #iterator routine to provide reference to the standard member port, so that extended parameters embedded in them can be accessed in the mapper routine. Corrected #member #port #create #API to create #statistics, #debug and #extended port #data-structures as part of the member port creation. Corrected #aggregator #create #API to create the #member port #list as part of aggregator creation.

GMPLS update - 55: adding standard tunnel activation handler

Added the #tunnel #activation #handler in GMPLS module. This will change the #tunnel #state as #active / #not-in-service effectively #enabling / #disabling the tunnel operation. On activating the tunnel depending on the tunnel type further actions will change. For a #static tunnel, the #bandwidth #reservation will be performed on the lower links and the #external #paths will be found in that process. The #cross-connects and the #segments will be created and they will be further made active, effectively cascading the activation operation. For #dynamically #signaled #tunnels the signaling modules will take over the further operations.

Updating the #aggregator #activation handler in LAG module. The references to the augmented aggregator data-structures has been updated to the standard aggregator data-structures. This allows to directly use the #standard #aggregator data-structure and use the #embedded custom aggregator data-structure for internal operations.

GMPLS update - 40: adding in-segment activation handler

Added #in-segment #activation #handler in GMPLS module. On activating the in-segment it #enables the #LSP #segment operations on it. i.e. It #starts #receiving the #LSP #labelled #data on the interface. When cross-connect is also activated the received data will switched to the respective out-segments - with the respective out-going labels. And further passed to the out-going interfaces, thus completing the #label-switched #data-path.

GMPLS interface update - 1: added MPLS interface create/remove sequence

Added #MPLS-interface #create / #remove #sequence in GMPLS module. This enables to #create #MPLS-interface s #through the #IF #module #interface #management operations. On creating the MPLS logical-interface in the IF module the corresponding interface is created in the GMPLS module through the logical-interface handler routine. On removing the MPLS logical-interface in IF module, corresponding operations are performed in GMPLS module accordingly. The #MPLS-interface #activation and #ADMIN-STATUS operations are performed in the GMPLS module #through the appropriate logical-interface #handler #routine s defined by GMPLS module for the same, and the triggers for these operations are passed from the IF module to GMPLS module through these handlers.

IF update - 11: updating custom logical interface entries

Updated the #custom #logical #interface configuration #create / #remove routines in IF module. The #agent level #traversal #routine s and #mapper routines has been #upgraded for the new data-structure changes. The #interface #activation #handler has been adapted for the new changes. This allows to directly create the logical interfaces by the operator.

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.
