TED update 22: updated TE-Link cross-connect configuration

Updated #TE-Link #cross-connect configuration in #TED module. The new update indicates whether the #direction of cross-connect in #uni-directional cases. i.e It indicates the direction as #ingress / #egress corresponding to the #order of from-to #port #tuple specified in the cross-connect. This enables to specify either the #incoming / #outgoing port as the #first in the from-to tuple. This will be #relevant when conveying this information through the #signaling modules, as the operator may specifically want to specify the order of ports in from-to tuple. In addition to it is also possible to indicate the cross-connect as uni-directional/bi-directional. The above property is specifically used when the cross-connect is in #simplex mode.

GMPLS update - 33: adding standard extended TE tunnel parameters

#Added #standard #extended #TE #tunnel parameters in the GMPLS module. This include the #extended #tunnel #parameters for #bi-directional operation as well as parameters to specify the #TE-Node #identifiers as the #head and #tail #nodes for #mpls-tunnels. The #opposite-dir-tunnel pointer is used to refer the tunnel in the #reverse #direction for co-routed bi-directional or associated bi-directional tunnels. The #reverse #LSP could be a #different #LSP of the #same #tunnel in #co-routed #bi-directional use-case or the #same #LSP could function for #both the #directions. For #associated #bi-directional tunnel the #reverse #LSP will be part of an entirely #different #tunnel. The #tunnel-index and the #tunnel-instance parameters specify the respective indexes in the #reverse #tunnel for an associated bi-directional tunnel.

GMPLS interface update - 4: optimizing MPLS interface statistics entries

#Update d #standard #MPLS-interface #statistics agent mapper routines in GMPLS module. The agent #iterator routines and #mapper #routine has been updated to use standard MPLS-interface entry based #indexing. This will access the port entries by using the #native #indexing. This removes references to the standard MPLS-interface statistics indexing used earlier. The extended entries add support for #attribute s like #count for #in-coming / #out-going #label s in use on the interface and the #count #of #error s in the #in-coming / #out-going #direction s. The standard MPLS-interface statistics entries has been embedded in the MPLS-interface entries. This will reduce the memory requirement associated with the interface statistics.
