Abstract:
Point-to-MultiPoint (P2MP) Multiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS) and
Generalized MPLS (GMPLS) Traffic Engineering Label Switched Paths (TE
LSPs) are established using signaling procedures defined in
[RFC4875]. However, [RFC4875] does not address several issues that
arise when a P2MP-TE LSP is signaled in inter-domain networks. One
such issue is the computation of a loosely routed inter-domain P2MP-
TE LSP paths that are re-merge free. Another issue is the
reoptimization of the inter-domain P2MP-TE LSP tree vs. an individual
destination(s), since the loosely routing domain ingress border node
is not aware of the reoptimization scope. This document defines the
required protocol extensions needed for establishing and reoptimizing
P2MP MPLS and GMPLS TE LSPs in inter-domain networks.
