6.1.6 LAG
The LAG topology represents a link between two LAG or EtherChannel interfaces that are
connected in the network. The underlying physical links do not have to be discovered for
the LAG link to be discovered.
In the VNE model, the endpoints of the link are indicated in the Data Link Aggregation
Container IMO (IDataLinkAggregationContainer), which points to the LAG or EtherChannel
underline ports.
Link type: LAG

6.1.7 Frame Relay
The Frame Relay topology represents a link between two Frame Relay ports that are
connected in the network. In the VNE model, the endpoints of the link are FrameRelay
IMOs (Frame Relay Interface (IFrameRelay/IFrTrunk)), which represent the Frame Relay
ports.
Frame Relay links between Cisco devices with CDP enabled can be discovered dynamically.
For all other cases, static topology configuration should be used.

6.1.8 MPLS
The MPLS topology represents adjacent MPLS interfaces in the network. These MPLS
interfaces forward MPLS (labeled) traffic between them. Labels may be learned using
discovery protocols, such as LDP or TDP (Cisco), or may be manually configured. In the VNE
model, the endpoints of the link are MPLS IMOs (IMpls), which represent the MPLS
interfaces.
