1.  Introduction

   [RFC5440] describes the Path Computation Element Computation Protocol
   (PCEP) which is used between a Path Computation Element (PCE) and a
   Path Computation Client (PCC) (or other PCE) to enable computation of
   Multi-protocol Label Switching (MPLS) for Traffic Engineering Label
   Switched Path (TE LSP).  PCEP Extensions for the Stateful PCE Model
   [RFC8231] describes a set of extensions to PCEP to enable active
   control of MPLS-TE and Generalized MPLS (GMPLS) tunnels.  As depicted
   in [RFC4655], a PCE MUST be able to compute the path of a TE LSP by
   operating on the TED and considering bandwidth and other constraints
   applicable to the TE LSP service request.

   A PCE always perform path computation based on the network topology
   information collected through BGP-LS [RFC9552].  BGP-LS can get
   multiple link-state data from multiple IGP instance, or multiple
   virtual topologies from a single IGP instance.  In some cases, as per
   [I-D.ietf-teas-yang-topology-filter], a path may be computed within a
   network topology such as a specified topology, a topology associated
   with a specific IGP domain, a topology learnt from a specific TE
   information source, a topology defined by the application of one or

Internet-Draft     PCEP Extensions for Topology Filter     February 2025

   more topology filters, a topology associated with an Network Resource
   Partition (NRP) and so on.  The PCE MUST take the topology related
   constraints into consideration during the path computation.

   As defined in [I-D.ietf-teas-yang-topology-filter], a topology filter
   is a data construct that is used to filter network topologies.  This
   document proposes a set of extensions for PCEP to support the
   topology filter during path computation.

1.1.  Terminology

   The terminology is defined as [RFC5440], [RFC9552] and [RFC8795].

1.2.  Requirements Language

   The key words "MUST", "MUST NOT", "REQUIRED", "SHALL", "SHALL NOT",
   "SHOULD", "SHOULD NOT", "RECOMMENDED", "MAY", and "OPTIONAL" in this
   document are to be interpreted as described in [RFC2119].

2.  Topology Filter with PCE

   As defined in [I-D.ietf-teas-yang-topology-filter], a topology filter
   specifies the topology reference or a set of filtering rules.  The
   topology filters carry a list of topology filters and a topology
   filter-set constitutes a list of topology filter references.

   The topology reference indicates a predefined TE topology or a
   specific IGP domain.  A TE topology can be identified from a global
   scope such as a provider ID, a client ID or a topology ID.  And a
   specific IGP domain can be identified by protocol ID, instance ID,
   division ID, algo ID and MT ID.  The PCE should consider these
   identifiers as topology constraints during path computation.

   The filtering rules specify a set of constraints on the topology
   including include-any, include-all and exclude.  A set of attributes
   that can be used as rules to filter the topology such as link
   affinity, link name, node prefix, AS number and TE information
   source.  The filtering rules of these attributes can be used to
   compute path at PCE.

3.1.  TOPOLOGY-FILTER Object

   This document defines a new TOPOLOGY-FILTER object to carry the
   topology filter.  The TOPOLOGY-FILTER object is optional and
   specifies the specific topology to be taken into account by the PCE
   during path computation.  The TOPOLOGY-FILTER object can be carried
   within a PCReq message, or a PCRep message in case of unsuccessful
   path computation.

   TOPOLOGY-FILTER Object-Class is TBD1.

   TOPOLOGY-FILTER Object-Type is TBD2.

   The format of the TOPOLOGY-FILTER object body is:

   and MUST be ignored on receipt.

   Flags (8 bits): No flags are currently defined.  Unassigned flags
   MUST be set to zero on transmission and MUST be ignored on receipt.

   ID.  This document defines a new IGP Domain Identifier TLV for
   topology filter to identify a IGP domain within a referenced
   topology.

   The IGP Domain Identifier TLV is optional and the format is as
   following shown:

   The code point for the TLV type is TBD8.  The TLV length is 10
   octets.

   Protocol-ID (8 bits): defined in [RFC9552] section 5.2.

3.2.  Procedures

   A PCC MAY insert a TOPOLOGY-FILTER object in PCReq message to
   indicate the specific topology that MUST be considered by the PCE
   during path computation.  The PCE will compute the path with the
   constrains with the filtering rules and reply the result to the PCC
   with a PCRep message.

   The PCE could perform path computation based on the topology
   identified by the topology filter rules that can be applied on either
   the native topology or a user specified topology.  The absence of the
   IGP Domain Identifier TLV and TE Topology Identifier TLV indicate
   that the PCE should compute within a native topology and only
   Filtering Rules TLV is applied as the filtering rules.

4.  IANA Considerations

4.1.  TOPOLOGY-FILTER Object

   IANA is requested to make allocations for Topology Filter Object from
   the registry, as follows:

   TOPOLOGY-FILTER Object-Class is TBD1.

   TOPOLOGY-FILTER Object-Type is TBD2.

   The TLVs for Topology Filter Object is as follows:

          +======+============================+=================+
          | Type |            TLV             |    Reference    |

          | TBD4 | TE Topology Identifier TLV | [this document] |

          | TBD5 |    Filtering Rules TLV     | [this document] |
          +------+----------------------------+-----------------+

                  Table 1: TLVs for Topology Filter Object

   IANA is requested to make allocations for sub-TLVs from the registry,
   as follows:
