However, {[}RFC4875{]} does not address many issues that comes when a P2MP-TE LSP is signaled in an inter-domain networks. Specifically, one of the issues in inter-domain networks is how to allow computation of a loosely routed P2MP-TE LSP such that it is re-merge free. Another issue is reoptimization of a P2MP-TE tree vs. reoptimization of an individual destination, as loosely routing domain border node is not aware of the reoptimization scope. This document provides a framework and required protocol extensions needed for establishing, controlling and reoptimizing P2MP MPLS and GMPLS TE LSPs in inter-domain networks. This document borrows inter-domain TE terminology from {[}RFC 4726{]}, e.g., for the purposes of this document, a domain is considered to be any collection of network elements within a common sphere of address management or path computational responsibility. Examples of such domains include Interior Gateway Protocol (IGP) areas and Autonomous Systems (ASes).}, }
