Abstract:
The Path Computation Element (PCE) Communication Protocol (PCEP)
provides mechanisms for PCEs to perform path computation in response
to a Path Computation Client (PCC) request. The Stateful PCE
extensions allow stateful control of Multi-Protocol Label Switching
(MPLS) Traffic Engineering (TE) Label Switched Paths (LSPs) using
PCEP.
A Path Computation Client (PCC) can synchronize LSP state information
to a Stateful Path Computation Element (PCE). A PCC can have
multiple PCEP sessions towards multiple PCEs. In some use cases,
inter-PCE stateful communication can bring additional resiliency in
the design, for instance, when some PCC-PCE session fails.
This document describes the procedures to allow stateful
communication between PCEs for various use cases and also the
procedures to prevent computational loops.
