Typically such network elements are added to a network and they will remain in

### Topology Inventories
### Topology Inventory
Every network has one given physical topology (G<sub>physical</sub> ) and on
top of this at least one logical topology (G<sub>logical1</sub>). There may be
multiple logical topologies (G<sub>n+1</sub>) on top logical topologies
(G<sub>n</sub>), i.e., a recursion.

can again have other logical topologies as recursion or other logical topologies

A topology consists out of interfaces, which are attached to their respective
network elements, and links between these interfaces.

G<sub>physical</sub> ist a superset of G<sub>logical1</sub>.
The topology inventory has to store the particular graph for any topology and
also the connections between the different levels of topologies. For instance,
the G<sub>logical1</sub> is linked to G<sub>physical</sub>. (needs to be clear
if changes in n-1 graph has impact on n graph).
For further study at this point: Which type of database and implementation of
databases should be used to store the different topology graphs and their
pontential dependencies? How should the interface between gosdn and this
database look like?
