SR Policy is an ordered list of segments (i.e., instructions) that represent a source-routed policy. Packet flows are steered into an SR Policy on a node where it is instantiated called a headend node. An SR Policy is made of one or more candidate paths. This document specifies Path Computation Element Communication Protocol (PCEP) extension to associate candidate paths of the SR Policy. Additionally, this document updates {[}RFC8231{]} to allow stateful bringup of an SR LSP, without using PCReq/PCRep messages. This document is applicable to both Segment Routing over MPLS and to Segment Routing over IPv6 (SRv6).}, }
