GMPLS update - 82: adding new parameters in custom computed-path configuration

Adding new #attributes in custom #computed-path configuration GMPLS module. The new attributes #node-id and #link-id adds support for specifying the #path #segment with respect to the #TE-Node and #TE-Link. This helps in describing the tunnel path using the nodes and links along the way. The #address information of the individual links are #automatically #populated based on the specified node-id and link-id configuration. This adds support for specifying the tunnel computed-path without knowing the address information, but using only the links on the way.

GMPLS update - 76: adding new parameters in custom actual-path configuration

Adding new #attributes in custom #actual-path configuration GMPLS module. The new attributes #node-id and #link-id adds support for specifying the #path #segment with respect to the #TE-Node and #TE-Link. This helps in describing the tunnel path using the nodes and links along the way. The #address information of the individual links are #automatically #populated based on the specified node-id and link-id configuration. This adds support for specifying the tunnel actual-path without knowing the address information, but using only the links on the way.

GMPLS update - 74: adding new parameters in custom explicit-path configuration

Adding #new #attributes in custom #explicit-path configuration GMPLS module. The new attributes #node-id and #link-id adds support for specifying the #path #segment with respect to the #TE-Node and #TE-Link. This helps in describing the tunnel path using the nodes and links along the way. The #address information of the individual links are #automatically #populated based on the specified node-id and link-id configuration.

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.

TED update - 6: renaming standard TE node entries

Renamed #standard #TE-node entries in TED module. The TE-node configuration entries has been made straight forward by correcting it's name. The TE-node entries contain #attributes like #node-id, #autonomous-system-number ( #ASN ), #country-code ( #CC ), #itu-t-carrier-code ( #ICC ) and a local node index for unique reference. This enables to refer the nodes in the network using either using the ASN or the ITU-T based ICC addressing scheme. This also serves as a #database of all #known #nodes in the system. When new nodes gets discovered by the TE signaling modules (e.g. OSPF-TE, ISIS-TE) a dedicated entry will be created for each node, so that it can be referenced in remaining parts of the system (e.g. endpoints of TE-Link). The TE-nodes will be referenced as source, destination or the intermediate nodes of an tunnel LSP path.
