By using the EPT run design command, are the previously designed elements removed?
A.
Yes, they are but only the first time the command is launched as - for future design phases - the existing packs need to keep the same slotting.
B.
It depends, the user is prompted to choose whether to delete or leave the previously designed elements.
C.
Not the design is always progressive, on top of the previous design.
D.
Yes, although this is not happening in case of GMPLS-enabled nodes because existing slots cannot change as they are controlled by another manager (GMRE).
The EPT run design command can remove previously designed elements, but the user is prompted to choose whether to delete them or leave them intact. This allows the user to progress their design while still keeping the existing elements in place. If the user selects to leave the existing elements, then they will remain in the same slots. If GMPLS nodes are used, the existing slots cannot change as they are controlled by another manager (GMRE).
Question # 6
Is it possible to modify node parameters within the edit EPT menu?
A.
Yes, the user can apply manual changes directly from this view
B.
Yes, but the user can modify only the node name and location
C.
No, this view is used to display a close-up view of the node
D.
Yes, the user can apply manual changes but only for non-GMPLS nodes, as the control plane reserves node resources not editable by the user
Yes, the user can apply manual changes but only for non-GMPLS nodes, as the control plane reserves node resources not editable by the user. The edit EPT menu allows the user to view information about a node but is not used to modify node parameters. The user can only apply manual changes to non-GMPLS nodes, as the control plane reserves node resources which cannot be modified by the user.
