GMPLS update - 64: hard-linking standard GMPLS out-segment entries

Hard-linked standard #GMPLS #out-segment entries with #standard #out-segment #entries in GMPLS module. The agent #iterator routines and #mapper #routine has been updated to use standard #out-segment entry based #indexing. This will access the out-segment entries by using the #native #indexing. This removes references to the GMPLS out-segment indexing used earlier. This will reduce the memory requirement associated with the GMPLS out-segment entries. The GMPLS out-segment #entries add support for #attributes like #segment-direction, #ttl-decrement, #pointer to external parameters, etc ...

GMPLS update - 62: optimizing standard GMPLS computed-path entries

Optimized #standard #extended GMPLS #tunnel #computed-path #entries in GMPLS module. This removes the #extended #path-hop #attributes like flags indicating whether #hop-forward-label and #hop-reverse-label are present or not, the #labels them selves and the #pointers to the external labels. This will reduce the memory requirement associated with the #GMPLS #computed-path-hop entries. The hard-linked #custom GMPLS #computed-path-hop entries provides #alternate custom #parameters which satisfies the same requirement.

GMPLS update - 60: optimizing standard label stack entries

Optimized #standard #label #stack #entries in GMPLS module. This #removes the #attributes like #label and #pointer to label. The hard-linked #custom #label #stack entries provides the label information of the stack which satisfies the same requirement. The custom out-segment entry is capable of maintaining the label of any media type, hence this will be more useful than the standard entries - which is quite limited. This will reduce the memory requirement associated with the label stack entries.

GMPLS update - 59: optimizing standard out-segment entries

Optimized #standard #out-segment #entries in GMPLS module. This #removes the #attributes like #pointer to #extra #parameters. The hard-linked #custom #out-segment entries provides the extra #parameters on the segment which satisfies the same requirement. The custom out-segment entry holds attributes like #swap-label and #top-label. This will reduce the memory requirement associated with the out-segment entries.

GMPLS update - 57: optimizing standard out-segment entries

Optimized #standard #out-segment #entries in GMPLS module. This #removes the #attributes like #top-label, #pointer #to top #label and #pointer to #traffic #parameter. The hard-linked #custom #out-segment entries provides #alternate #parameters which satisfies the same requirement and the traffic parameters are derived from the associated tunnel LSP. The custom out-segment entry holds attributes like #swap-label and #top-label. The removed standard attributes support only few media types, but the custom attributes supports #label-types for different media types. This will reduce the memory requirement associated with the out-segment entries.

GMPLS update - 45: upgrading standard MPLS tunnel configuration entries

Upgraded #standard MPLS #tunnel #configuration entries in GMPLS module. The #tunnel-name and #tunnel-description has been set to #limited #size in-line with commonly used #max-limit. The #cross-connect #pointer and #resource-pointer has been removed and the #cross-connect-index and #resource-index defined in #custom MPLS #tunnel #configuration entries will be used instead. This removes the long (and memory hogging) pointer format and uses light weight integer indexes in to the respective configuration entries.

GMPLS update - 32: updating standard extended cross-connect parameters agent mapper routines

#Updated #standard #extended #cross-connect parameters agent routines in GMPLS module. The agent #iterator routines and #mapper #routine has been updated to use standard #cross-connect #based #indexing. This will access the GMPLS in-segment entries #embedded #in the standard #MPLS #cross-connect entries and there by removing the redundant indexing. The specific tunnel which uses the cross-connect is referenced through the #tunnel #pointer and the cross-connect for the opposite direction is referenced through the #opposite-cross-connect #pointer. The cross-connect pointer is used for the #co-routed #bi-directional #tunnels and #associated #bi-directional #tunnels.
