PCE-Based Computation Procedure to Compute Shortest Constrained Point-to-Multipoint Inter-Domain Traffic Engineering Label Switched Paths

Overview

RFC 7334, “PCE-Based Computation Procedure to Compute Shortest Constrained Point-to-Multipoint Inter-Domain Traffic Engineering Label Switched Paths”, is an Experimental document published in August 2014 by Q. Zhao, D. Dhody, D. King, Z. Ali, R. Casellas. The canonical text is published by the RFC Editor.

Abstract

The ability to compute paths for constrained point-to-multipoint (P2MP) Traffic Engineering Label Switched Paths (TE LSPs) across multiple domains has been identified as a key requirement for the deployment of P2MP services in MPLS- and GMPLS-controlled networks. The Path Computation Element (PCE) has been recognized as an appropriate technology for the determination of inter-domain paths of P2MP TE LSPs.

This document describes an experiment to provide procedures and extensions to the PCE Communication Protocol (PCEP) for the computation of inter-domain paths for P2MP TE LSPs.
