GMPLS update - 83: updating custom actual-path agent mapper routines

Updated #custom #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.

GMPLS update - 77: adding new set of custom tunnel configuration parameters

Added new set of #custom #configuration #parameters for #tunnels in #GMPLS module. The new parameters are #reroute_upstream_enable, #upstream_resource_index, #crankback_model, #crankback_enable, #crankback_list_index, #softpreemption_enable, #oam_enable and #oam_status. The reroute_upstream_enable controls the capability to reroute the tunnel from upstream node and procedures to request reroute. The crankback_model indicates the specific model being followed by the stack e.g. end-to-end-rerouting, boundary-rerouting or segment-rerouting and crankback_enable controls whether crankback operations are permitted or not. The softpreemption_enable parameter enables the soft-preemption procedures - when needed. The oam_enable enables/disables OAM procedures on the tunnel.

GMPLS update - 68: adding asymmetric bandwidth parameter in custom tunnel entries

Added #new #parameters in #custom #MPLS-tunnel #configuration in #GMPLS module. The #reverse-resource-index optional parameter has been added to tunnel configuration. When present it specify the #resource #requirement for the #reverse #direction, other wise resource requirement is assumed to be same for both directions as the normal #resource-index parameter. This enables to specify #asymmetric #bandwidth for #forward and #reverse #tunnel directions. In normal cases forward and reverse directions shares the same resource requirements. But in specific scenarios it is necessary to specify unequal bandwidths for forward and reverse directions. The new parameter caters this requirement and enables to specify different resource configuration for each directions.

GMPLS update - 66: adding out-segment create/remove API

Added #create / #remove #API for #standard MPLS #out-segment #configuration in GMPLS module. These APIs will be used by the other module procedures to create out-segment entries in the #MPLS-LSR #framework. This will #create the other #dependent #objects of the out-segment. For each standard out-segment entry, one out-segment #statistics entry, one #GMPLS #configuration entry and a #custom #out-segment configuration entry will be created along with it. The create API makes sure that these #hierarchical #entries are in place. The remove API will handle the #cleanup operation of the standard out-segment entry. On removing the standard out-segment entry the related #hierarchical #entries will be #removed from the framework #automatically.
