Ethernet MEF update 1: relocating MEF framework

#Relocating #MEF #framework #to #ethernet module. Moved the MEF framework for UNI and ENNI s from provider bridge module to ethernet module. This will help #to #use MEF framework in common #on #all #ethernet #based #ports.

LACP update - 9: LACP incoming PDU receive

Created a #message #queue in LACP module for #handling #LACP #PDU s. This will enable #HAL module to #trap the #LACP #PDU s from #ports and pass them over to #LACP module as messages for processing. The message library APIs for sending and receiving the messages are used for this purpose. The thread APIs are used to create a #waiting #message #loop in LACP module.

Bridge VLAN update - 11

Added optimizations for #bridge #VLAN #runtime #database in ethernet module. This enables to specify the set of #egress #ports to which frames received on a VLAN are permitted to sent. The port lists specifies #all #egress #ports and #egress #untagged #ports separately for VLANs and they are sized according to the #dynamic #max_number_of_ports parameter configuration. This will enable to dynamically set the size of egress ports listing for each bridge VLAN. This removes the static allocation of max size of member port listing and reduces the memory requirement for the member port list.

Bridge filtering database update - 10

Added optimizations for #filtering configuration of #multicast #MAC #addresses for #filtering-database s in ethernet module. This enables specify the set of ports to which frames received from specific ports and containing specific #multicast / #broadcast #destination #addresses are allowed to be forwarded. The port lists specifying the ports to which matching frames has shall be forwarded and ports to which frames shall be forbidden to be forwarded are sized according to the #dynamic max_number_of_ports parameter configuration. This will enable to dynamically set the size of #member #ports listing for each bridge VLAN. This removes the static allocation of max size of member port listing and reduces the memory requirement for the member port list.

Ethernet logical port update - 2 + LAG member port update - 2

Added changes in ethernet module for passing on #ethernet #logical #interface #status #change s to LAG module. When status update is received on #LAG #member #ports the status is updated with the LAG module port status handler. This will enable LAG module to perform aggregator specific operations to be performed on relation with the port status change.

Bridge filtering database update - 9

Added optimizations for #filtering configuration of #unicast #MAC #addresses for #filtering-database s in ethernet module. This enables specify the set of ports to which frames received from specific ports and containing specific #unicast #destination #addresses are allowed to be forwarded. The port lists specifying the ports to which matching frames has shall be forwarded and ports to which frames shall be forbidden to be forwarded are sized according to the #dynamic #max_number_of_ports parameter configuration. This will enable to dynamically set the size of #member #ports listing for each bridge VLAN. This removes the static allocation of max size of member port listing and reduces the memory requirement for the member port list.

Bridge multicast update - 3

Added support for #dynamic max_number_of_ports parameter in #bridge #multicast #forward-unregistered configuration on ethernet module. This will enable to dynamically set the size of #member #egress #ports, #static #ports and #forbidden #ports listing for each bridge VLAN. This removes the static allocation of max size of member port listing and reduces the memory requirement for the member port list. The forward-unregistered port configuration will be either configured statically or dynamically via #MMRP protocol.

Bridge multicast update - 2

Added support for #dynamic max_number_of_ports parameter in #bridge #multicast #forward-all configuration on ethernet module. This will enable to dynamically set the size of #member #egress #ports, #static #ports and #forbidden #ports listing for each bridge VLAN. This removes the static allocation of max size of member port listing and reduces the memory requirement for the member port list. The forward-all port configuration will be either configured statically or dynamically via #MMRP protocol.

Bridge multicast update

Added support for #dynamic #configuration on max_number_of_ports in #bridge #multicast #group #framework on ethernet module. This will enable to dynamically set the size of #member #egress #ports and #learned #ports listing for each bridge #multicast-group. This removes the static allocation of max size of member port listing and reduces the memory requirement for the member port list. According to the configured port density on the particular bridge #component the multicast group member port lists will be dynamically allocated.
