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.

GMPLS update - 50: corrections in standard MPLS tunnel API

Added #corrections in the #standard #MPLS #external #API in GMPLS module. The #cross-connect based #index #removal #step has been added in the tunnel removal routine. The #standard #extended #MPLS #entries and the #standard #GMPLS #error #entries routines has been #chain #linked in the create / remove routines for the external tunnel API. This ensures a hierarchical handling of these entries in the #create / #remove #sequence s.

LAG upgrade - 9: member port API update

Updated #external #create / #remove #API for #member #ports in LAG module. Removed references to augmented data-structures from these routines. The external #create API creates the member port configuration entry and it's #associated #data-structures like port #statistics and #debugging parameters. The #custom member port parameter entries and #extended configuration entries are also #instantiated along with the create operation. On the #remove call these #dependent #structures are #removed first followed by the member port itself.

GMPLS update - 30: updating standard GMPLS in-segment parameters agent mapper routines

#Updated #standard #GMPLS #in-segment parameters agent routines in GMPLS module. The agent #iterator routines and #mapper #routine has been updated to use standard #in-segment #based #indexing. This will access the GMPLS in-segment entries #embedded #in the standard #MPLS #in-segment entries and there by removing the redundant indexing. The standard GMPLS in-segment entries holds the #attributes like the #segment-direction and #pointer to the #external segment #parameters, etc ...

GMPLS update - 23: optimizing standard GMPLS in-segment entries

#Updated #standard #GMPLS #in-segment agent mapper routines in GMPLS module. The agent #iterator routines and #mapper #routine has been updated to #use standard #in-segment entry based #indexing. This will access the port entries by using the #native #indexing. This removes references to the standard GMPLS in-segment indexing used earlier. The GMPLS in-segment #entries add support for #in-segment #counter #attributes like the #segment-direction and #pointer to the #external #parameters, etc ...

TED update - 4: adding extended TED parameter framework

Added #extended #custom #TED #parameter s in TED module. The new TED #framework include #node, #link, #link-address and #node-adjacency #databases on the network. The node database include s all TE nodes present in the network. The TE-Links configured on each node is captured in the link database, the addresses by which the links are identified is available in the link-address database. The adjacency information between the nodes and their neighbors are available in node-adjacency database. The #locally #configured #TE-Link information is directly fed to the TED database, also the #TE information #available #from the #external #signaling modules (e.g. #OSPF-TE, #ISIS-TE) is also captured in the TED database. The TED database is used to efficiently #compute #path for #tunnel #LSPs.

GMPLS interface update - 2: added MPLS interface external API

Added #MPLS-interface #external #API routines in GMPLS module. This enables to #create / #remove #MPLS-interface related #hierarchical #entries through a single API. The standard GMPLS interface entries are also created indirectly through these routine calls. The MPLS interface handle will be using these routine calls to create the MPLS-interface as the side effect of creating the corresponding logical-interface in the IF module. The MPLS interface entries #contain the #attribute s like #current range of #in-coming / #out-going #label s used and the #bandwidth #state.

IF update - 9: logical interface API update
