How to Add a Network Element with Bellcore States defined in XML
<addObject id="NE3">
  <class>ilog.tgo.model.IltNetworkElement</class>
  <attribute name="name">NE3</attribute>
  <attribute name="type">Router</attribute>
  <attribute name="position" javaClass="ilog.cpl.graphic.IlpPoint">
    <x>151</x>  <y>512</y>
  </attribute>
  <attribute name="objectState"
         javaClass="ilog.tgo.model.IltBellcoreObjectState">
    <state>EnabledActive</state>
    <secState>TestFailure</secState>
  </attribute>
</addObject>
How to Set Bellcore States to an Existing Object using XML

The following example shows how to set Bellcore states to an object that already exists in the data source. You can achieve this by using the XML tag <updateObject> to modify the attribute objectState:

<updateObject id="NE1">
  <attribute name="objectState" javaClass="ilog.tgo.model.IltBellcoreObjectState">
    <state>EnabledActive</state>
    <secState>Blocked</secState>
    <secState>Busy</secState>
  </attribute>
</updateObject>
How to Update Bellcore States Incrementally using XML
<updateObject id="NE1">
  <updateState>
    <state>EnabledIdle</state>
    <secState operation="remove">Blocked</secState>
    <secState operation="remove">Busy</secState>
    <secState>HotStandby</secState>
  </updateState>
</updateObject>
