Abstract:
A Path Computation Element (PCE)-based architecture has been specified for
the computation of Traffic Engineering (TE) Label Switched Paths (LSPs) in Multiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS)
and Generalized MPLS (GMPLS) networks in the context of single or multiple domains (where a
domain refers to a collection of network elements within a common sphere of address management
or path computational responsibility such as Interior Gateway Protocol (IGP) areas and Autonomous Systems). Path
Computation Clients (PCCs) send computation requests to PCEs, and these may forward the requests to
and cooperate with other PCEs forming a "path computation chain".
