GMPLS update 84: optimizing GMPLS Tunnel configuration entries

Updated the #GMPLS #Tunnel configuration #entries in GMPLS module. The GMPLS Tunnel configuration entries has been #optimized to use shorter #variable #names and removed the #length variable for many #multi-size #parameters. This makes uses of short & easier variable names. The memory size of many multi-size variables have been made static and length support has been removed reducing the memory requirement.

CFM update - 3: optimizing agent framework for VLAN & Component support

Updated the #agent #framework in CFM module for #VLAN & #Component support. The VLAN & Component aware #CFM #framework has been #optimized to use proper #variable #names and removed the #length variable for many #multi-size #parameters. All the VLAN aware part of CFM framework has been upgraded this way. This makes uses of straight forward variable names. The memory size of many multi-size variables have been made static and length support has been removed reducing the memory requirement.

CFM update - 2: optimizing agent framework

Updated the #agent #framework in CFM module. The #generic #CFM #framework has been #optimized to use proper #variable #names and removed the #length variable for many #multi-size #parameters.

GMPLS update - 80: optimizing tunnel session attribute

Updated #session-attribute parameter for #MPLS-Tunnel in GMPLS module. The parameter size has been fixed to specific bytes and hence the #length variable for the parameter has been removed. The agent handler for this parameter has been updated to remove the variable length from use. This reduces the memory required to hold the session-attribute parameter. The session-attribute will keep track of the parameters like #fast-reroute-enabled, #merging-permitted, #persistence-enabled, #route-pinned, #record-route, etc... The fast-reroute-enabled parameter enables the upstream node to safely reroute the tunnel on a downstream link or node failure using a local-repair mechanism. The merging-permitted parameter enables the transit routers to merge the tunnels with the same destination, this is used on a resource crunch or better scaling of the network. The persistence-enabled parameter causes to automatically retry to reestablish the tunnel on a failure. The route-pinned parameter causes the dynamically computed path to be used permanently as an explicit-path. The record-route parameter causes the transit routes to be recorded and send back to the tunnel head-node.

TED update - 16: adding extended addressing parameters in TE-Link address entries

Added #extended #addressing #parameters with #link-address entries in TED module. The address information has been extended by including the #address #prefix length and the #un-numbered address support. The address #prefix allows to represent #ranges of #address in link-address entries. The #address-prefix holds the #prefix #length of the specified address in the entries. The #un-numbered addresses are represented by #address-unnum parameter. Along with the un-numbered address the #parent #IPv4 #address is also included in the entries. The new parameters allows to represent wide range of address in a compact way and variety of address types are added in the link-address entries.
