TED update - 19: adding new TE-Link reservation priority based index

Added #new #priority #based #indexing on the #TE-Link #reservations in the TED module. This will enable to #query TE-Link reservations #based on their #priority. This will be useful when #preemptable #bandwidth has to be calculated from the existing reservations on a TE-Link. When preemption is enabled and #unreserved #bandwidth is not being available, some of the existing #lower #priority reservations will be released and used to fulfill the current requirement.

TED update - 5: adding TE-Link adjustment capability parameters

Added new #adjustment-capability ( #IACD ) information both #on #TE-Link and the individual #component-link level s in TED module. The adjustment-capability enables to capture the #capability and #capacity of each node to #perform #media #conversion #between it's #TE-Links ( #Ethernet-to-SDH, #Ethernet-to-OTN, #OTN-to-WDM, etc ... ). The adjustment-capability indicated as the #higher and #lower #layer #switching-type and #LSP-encoding #of a possible #media #conversion and #bandwidth capacity is indicated per #priority. When a node has different types of - media - TE-Links and it is possible to forward data-stream between these links the internal capacity of the node to perform this conversion is indicated as adjustment-capability.

IF update - 14: updating logical interface stacking handler

Updated the #logical-interface #stack #handling routines in IF module. The #stacking #change #handler routines has been #upgraded for the new data-structure changes. The interface stacking change handler will #check with the #upper and #lower #interface #layer s #on #create / #remove operations for each stack slice. e.g. On adding a #TE-Link over an #ethernet port the port capability (L2/L3/MPLS, bandwidth, MTU, duplexity, etc ...) and it's current state (OPER-STATUS) is checked. On creating the TE-Link TE-Link bandwidth is deduced from the lower layer ethernet port speed/bandwidth. On removing an GMPLS / #MPLS-tunnel, the earlier reserved bandwidth is returned back to it's lower layer #MPLS-interface and #TE-Link. These operations are supported through the interface stack change handler.

IF update - 13: updating logical interface status handler

Updated the #logical-interface #hierarchical #status #handling routines in IF module. The #status #change #handler routines has been #upgraded for the new data-structure changes. The hierarchical status handler #propagate s the interface #status #from the #lower interface #layer s #to the #higher #layer s. The interface #stacking enables the interface status to be decided based on the lower layer component interfaces. The interface status will depend on it's own #ADMIN-STATUS, #interface-type dependent #procedure s and #lower layer #interface #OPER-STATUS.

Interface stacking update - 4

Added changes for #interface #stacking handling routines in interfaces module. This will create an individual stacking layer between a pair of #lower and #higher layer interfaces. This will support different kind of checks - such as compatibility checks, capacity verification, etc ... - before and after the stacking layer creation or removal on upper and lower layer interfaces.

Interface stacking update - 3

Added changes for interface status handling routines in interfaces module. This will update the individual #interface status and propagate the status to higher layer interfaces. The status of #higher layer interfaces will be modified based on #lower layer base interfaces.
