Field	Description
TunnelName	The name of the tunnel.
FromNode	The originating node of the tunnel.
ToNode	The terminating node of the tunnel.
Bandwidth	The total bandwidth of the tunnel.
#Flow	The number of flows or demands that are routed on this tunnel.
FlowBW	The amount of bandwidth used by the demands on the tunnel.
BW_Diff	The difference between the flow bandwidth and the total bandwidth. This value is calculated by FlowBW - Bandwidth.
BW_Diff_Ratio	If the tunnel’s bandwidth is 0, then this value is the FlowBW. If the tunnel’s bandwidth is greater than 0, then this value is calculated by dividing BW_Diff by the total andwidth.
RoutePath	This is the actual routed path of the tunnel.
