2018-03-20FIB Interpose SourceNeale Ranns1-1/+2
The interpose source allows the source/provider to insert/interpose a DPO in the forwarding chain of the FIB entry ahead of the forwarding provided by the next best source. For example if the API source (i.e the 'control plane') has provided an adjacency for forwarding, then an interpose source (e.g. a monitoring service) couold interpose a replicatte DPO to copy the traffic to another location AND forward using the API's adjacency. To use the interose feature an existing source (i.e FIB_SOURCE_PLUGIN_HI) cn specifiy as a flag FIB_ENTRY_FLAG_INTERPOSE and provide a DPO to interpose. One might also consider using interpose in conjunction with FIB_ENTRY_FLAG_COVER_INHERIT to ensure the interpose object affects all prefixes in the sub-tree.

2018-03-09MPLS Unifom modeNeale Ranns1-3/+26
- support both pipe and uniform modes for all MPLS LSP - all API programming for output-labels requires that the mode (and associated data) is specificed - API changes in MPLS, BIER and IP are involved - new DPO [sub] types for MPLS labels to handle the two modes.

2017-12-09BIER in non-MPLS netowrksNeale Ranns1-12/+6
as decsribed in section 2.2 ihttps://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-bier-mpls-encapsulation-10 with BIFT encoding from: https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-wijnandsxu-bier-non-mpls-bift-encoding-00 changes: 1 - introduce the new BIFT lookup table. BIER tables that have an associated MPLS label are added to the MPLS-FIB. Those that don't are added to the BIER table 2 - BIER routes that have no associated output MPLS label will add a BIFT label. 3 - The BIER FMask has a path-list as a member to resolve via any possible path.
