Topology Module

Description

This module implements the management and storage of information in the databases, the communications with the different modules and the outer world are in the set of plugins that allows to export or import the information to the TopologyDataBase. Also this library has a Traffic Engineering Database (TEDB) and a BGP-LS Peer. The TEDB stores in memory a graph with nodes, links and their traffic engineering attributes. The netphony-topology library also includes a BGP-LS speaker (BGP-LS peer). The network-protocol library only included the protocol encoding, but not actually an executable. BGPPeer is the reference implementation of the BGP-LS speaker, Acting as a BGP4 peer, it initiates BGP connections with its designated peers and, simultaneously, waits for incoming connections.
