Telefonica Universitat Politecnica de Catalunya Universitat Politecnica de Catalunya ZTE Corporation The Path Computation Element (PCE) is able of determining paths according to constraints expressed in the form of metrics. The value of the metric can be signaled as a bound or maximum, meaning that path metric must be less than or equal such value. While this can be sufficient for certain services, some others can require the utilization of Precision Availability Metrics (PAM). This document defines a new object, namely the PRECISION METRIC object, to be used for path calculation or selection for networking services with performance requirements expressed as Service Level Objectives (SLO) using PAM.
