TED update - 14: adding standard TE-Node ASN/ICC based look-up methods

#Added #standard #TE-Node #ASN / #ICC address based #look-up methods in the TED module. This enables to access the #TE-Nodes in the network based on the #ASN based addressing or the #ITU-T based #ICC #addressing scheme. The #ASN based address scheme involves an #autonomous-system-number ( #ASN ) and the #node-id. This is also referred as the #IP-compatible addressing scheme. In the #ICC addressing scheme the TE-Nodes are addressed by #country-code ( #CC ), #itu-t-carrier-code ( #ICC ) and the #node-id. The new look-up mechanism uses #independent ASN address and ICC #address #mapping methods. This enables to access the TE-Nodes in either of the addressing schemes.

Ethernet phy update - 9: correcting logical-interface to phy port mapping

#Corrected #logical-interface #to #phy #port #mapping handlers to reference phy port configuration in ethernet module. #Updating phy port create / remove routines #to #keep #both physical port and logical-interface #indexes. This helps in reducing the redundant information and thus by reducing the memory requirement.

Ethernet phy update - 8: phy port cleanup

#Removed redundant #logical-interface to #phy #port #mapping from ethernet module. Started phase-2 restructuring of ethernet phy port framework. #Enabled #standard #phy #port #indexing once again.

MSTP update - 1: adding extended configuration parameters

Added #extended #parameters for #MSTP and #SPB operation in MSTP module. This include control parameters like #RESTRICTED_DOMAIN_ROLE, #FDB-to-SPT #mapping and #VLAN-to-SPT #mapping etc ...

Bridge port update - 12: PCP encoding/decoding admin flag

Added changes in ethernet module for handling the #bridge #port level #admin #flag for #PCP #mapping. The port level PCP mapping flag will #enable or #disable the PCP encoding/decoding #configuration on the port.  This flag will enable #port level #priority #code #point ( #PCP ) #encoding configuration entries and #decoding configuration entries on provider bridges. By default, #CoS and #DEI values as per the translation tables defined in #802-1Q-2011 will be used which can be further fine tuned by the operator.

Bridge port update - 11

Added changes in ethernet module for handling the #bridge #port level #admin #flag for #TC #mapping. The port level TC mapping flag will #enable or #disable the #CoS to #traffic-class #mapping #configuration on the port.  The TC mapping will enable to map CoS on frames to a traffic-class. The mapped traffic class will be used for effective #QoS treatment on the frame. By default, all CoS values are mapped to traffic-class '0' and #best-effort ( #BE ) treatment is provided.

Bridge port update - 10

Added changes in ethernet module for handling the #bridge #port level #admin #flag for #CoS #mapping. The port level CoS mapping flag will #enable or #disable the #CoS #mapping #configuration on the port.  The CoS remapping will enable to map CoS on frames to a different CoS value. The remapped CoS will be used for effective #QoS treatment on the frame. By default, for a frame the ingress CoS is considered as the #effective #CoS for QoS handling.

Bridge port update - 9

Added back-end #update #routine for #extended #bridge #port parameter #admin #flags in ethernet module. This will control port level attributes like #CoS, #TC and #PCP #mapping, #service #UNI, #ENNI, #VUNI and #spanning-tree enable. These attributes are checked for their correctness and valid ones are updated in the back-end structures.

Bridge port update - 8

Added #bridge #port #level #admin #flags #handler in ethernet module. These flags control parameters like #CoS, #TC and #PCP #mapping, #service #UNI, #ENNI, #VUNI and #spanning-tree operations on the respective port.

Bridge CoS update - 8

Added changes in ethernet module for traversing #port #level #effective ( #remapped ) #CoS to #traffic-class #mapping configuration. The new changes enables to #traverse through the optimized configuration entries. The #agent #framework uses these for #GETNEXT functionality among the configuration entries.

Bridge CoS update - 2

Added optimizations for  #port #level #effective ( #remapped ) #CoS to #traffic-class #mapping in ethernet module. The optimization reduces memory used for maintaining this configuration in ethernet module. The traffic-class decides the #QoS treatment for ethernet frames. The remapped CoS which was deduced from the ingress CoS is used for deciding the traffic-class to be applied. By default - without any configuration present, all CoS values are mapped to same default traffic-class 0.

PBB customer backbone port update - 5

Updating customer backbone port ( #CBP ) service mapping routine in bridge module with #HAL calls. Corresponding to the #mapping of local service #I-SID s - from external port or the internal ILAN from I-Component - to the backbone I-SID, #B-VID & #DST-MAC pair the HAL operations are performed. This causes the real service mapping to be done in #data-path / #data-plane as well, making a forwarding path.
