Node¶
Table with one row for each element of the type: 'Node'.
Columns¶
| Name | Description |
|---|---|
| Site | Site this node belongs to |
| Description | A user-defined text description (potentially long) that can be assigned to this element |
| Power consumption (KW) | Estimated power consumption of the element, in KiloWatts (KW) |
| Attributes | User-defined attributes associated to this element |
| JSON | An optional JSON content describing this element |
| SRGs | The Shared Risk Groups (SRGs) this element belongs to: the SRGs that mandate the shutdown (set in failure state) of this element |
| Power consumption details | A JSON detailing the cost items in this element |
| Name | A user-defined name (typically short) that can be assigned to this element |
| X-pos | Coordinate along x-axis (i.e. longitude) |
| Identifier | A unique identifier set to the element, and never changed |
| OPEX (per year) | Estimated OPEX cost of the element per year, in arbitrary units |
| Installed | Indicates if the element is installed. If not installed, the element behaves as if it did not exist, being unable to e.g. handle traffic or reserve any bandwidth |
| CAPEX | Estimated CAPEX cost of the element, in arbitrary units |
| Population | Total population in this node |
| Show | Show the element in the canvas, or else hide it |
| Up | Indicates if the element is up (active) or down (failed) |
| Y-pos | Coordinate along y-axis (i.e. latitude) |
| External links | Indicates if this element has one or more user-defined external URLs associated to it. If so, when the user clicks this cell, and selects the URL (if more than one), a navigator is launched and the URL page is shown. External links are not editable in the GUI, but via API. |
| Tags | User-defined tags associated to this element |
| Cost details | A JSON detailing the cost items in this element |
Views¶
| Name | Columns | Description |

| Full view | Name, Identifier, Description, ExternalLinks, Show, Up, Installed, Srgs, Site, X-pos, Y-pos, Population, Tags, Attributes, Json, Capex, Opex(perYear), CostDetails, PowerConsumption(kw), PowerConsumptionDetails | This table view corresponds to a view with all the table columns. In some occassions, this may imply an impractically large number of columns for human inspection. |
| Failure status | Name, Up, Installed, Srgs | Columns associated to the risks this element belongs to, and its failure status |
| Connectivity | Name, Up, X-pos, Y-pos | Columns associated to the element related paths, links, neighbor nodes and alike |
| Description & tags & attributes | Name, Identifier, Description, ExternalLinks, Up, Site, Population, Tags, Attributes, Json | Columns associated to side information like element names, descriptions, user associated tags or attributes |
| Power consumption info | Name, Up, PowerConsumption(kw), PowerConsumptionDetails | This view collects information on the estimated power consumption related to this element |
| KPIs | Name, Up, Installed | Columns associated to traffic-related KPIs of the multicast flows |
| Default view | Name, Show, Up, Site, Tags | This table view corresponds to a subset of columns selected as representative for a default table view. They typically include the most typical required values |
| Cost info | Name, Up, Capex, Opex(perYear), CostDetails | This view collects information on the estimated costs related to this element |
