This can help save network resource and useful in scenarios such as LSP recovery or when two LSPs do not need to be active at the same time. A Path Computation Element (PCE) is a centralized entity, responsible for path computation. Given this feature and its access to the network resource information and possibly active LSPs information, it can be used to support resource-sharing-based path computation with better efficiency. This document extends the Path Computation Element Protocol (PCEP) in order to support resource sharing-based path computation.}, }
