3.11 E-Series VLAN Interfaces
Description
This interface provides a list of all available ML-series equipment names that can be used in creating an
RPR L2 Topology, or a list of all available ML-series TP names that can be used in creating a
point-to-point L2 topology. The returned list of ML-series equipment or TP names does not guarantee
capability to create an L2 Topology. The list of ML-series equipment or TP names indicates the
equipment or TP that is not participating in an L2 topology at this time.
Parameters
Throws
globaldefs::ProcessingFailureException
EXCPT_INTERNAL_ERROR - Raised in case of nonspecific EMS internal failure.
EXCPT_INVALID_INPUT - Raised when any of the managed element names do not refer to a
managed element object.
EXCPT_ENTITY_NOT_FOUND - Raised when any of the managed elements do not exist in CTM.
Compliance
CTM-defined.
3.11 E-Series VLAN Interfaces
VLAN is required for single-card mode or multicard mode Ethernet SNC creation on E-series cards for
ONS 15327 and ONS 15454 NEs. CTM provides methods to create and delete VLAN. In CTM, VLAN
is created within a subnetwork and is available to all objects of a subnetwork in EMS. Each VLAN is
described by a unique name, an ID, and the name of the multilayer subnetwork. A network partition can
contain more than one multilayer subnetwork. VLAN names and IDs are unique within the network
partition.

Name Type Input/Output Description
managedElementList globaldefs::NamingAttributesList_T In List of MEs from which available
ML-series cards must be determined.
topoType multiLayerSubnetwork::L2TopoType_T In Topology type that is created using the list.
CTM supports L2TopoType_T.L2TT_RPR
or L2TopoType_T.L2TT_PT2PT.
how_many unsigned long In Maximum number of equipment or TP
names to return in the first batch.
eqorTPNamesList NamingAttributesList_T Out First batch of equipment or TP names.
eqorTPNamesIt NamingAttributesIterator_I Out Iterator used to retrieve the remaining
equipment or TP names.
