Abstract

Tree Engineering for Bit Index Explicit Replication (BIER-TE) shares architecture and packet formats with BIER. BIER-TE forwards and replicates packets based on a BitString in the packet header, but every BitPosition of the BitString of a BIER-TE packet indicates one or more adjacencies. BIER-TE Path can be derived from a Path Computation Element (PCE). This document specifies extensions to the Path Computation Element Protocol (PCEP) that allow a PCE to compute and initiate the path for the Tree Engineering for Bit Index Explicit Replication (BIER-TE).
