1.  Introduction

   As per [RFC4655], the Path Computation Element (PCE) is an entity
   that is capable of computing a network path or route based on a
   network graph, and applying computational constraints.  A Path
   Computation Client (PCC) may make requests to a PCE for paths to be
   computed.

   [RFC4857] describes how to set up point-to-multipoint (P2MP) Traffic
   Engineering Label Switched Paths (TE LSPs) for use in Multiprotocol
   Label Switching (MPLS) and Generalized MPLS (GMPLS) networks.  The
   PCE has been identified as a suitable application for the computation
   of paths for P2MP TE LSPs ([RFC5671]).

   The PCEP is designed as a communication protocol between PCCs and
   PCEs for point-to-point (P2P) path computations and is defined in
   [RFC5440].  The extensions of PCEP to request path computation for
   P2MP TE LSPs are described in [I-D.ietf-pce-rfc6006bis].

   Stateful PCEs are shown to be helpful in many application scenarios,
   in both MPLS and GMPLS networks, as illustrated in [RFC8051].  These
   scenarios apply equally to P2P and P2MP TE LSPs.
   [I-D.ietf-pce-stateful-pce] provides the fundamental extensions
   needed for stateful PCE to support general functionality for P2P TE

Internet-Draft                STATEFUL-P2MP                   March 2017


   LSP.  [I-D.ietf-pce-pce-initiated-lsp] provides the an extensions
   needed for stateful PCE-initiated P2P TE LSP.  Complementarily, this
   document focuses on the extensions that are necessary in order for
   the deployment of stateful PCEs to support P2MP TE LSPs.  This
   document describes the setup, maintenance and teardown of PCE-
   initiated P2MP LSPs under the stateful PCE model.

1.1.  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.  Terminology

   Terminology used in this document is same as terminology used in
   [I-D.ietf-pce-stateful-pce], [I-D.ietf-pce-pce-initiated-lsp], and
   [I-D.ietf-pce-rfc6006bis].

3.  Supporting P2MP TE LSP for Stateful PCE

3.1.  Motivation

   [RFC8051] presents several use cases, demonstrating scenarios that
   benefit from the deployment of a stateful PCE including optimization,
   recovery, etc which are equally applicable to P2MP TE LSPs.
   [I-D.ietf-pce-stateful-pce] defines the extensions to PCEP for P2P TE
   LSPs.  Complementarily, this document focuses on the extensions that
   are necessary in order for the deployment of stateful PCEs to support
   P2MP TE LSPs.

   In addition to that, the stateful nature of a PCE simplifies the
   information conveyed in PCEP messages since it is possible to refer
   to the LSPs via PLSP-ID ([I-D.ietf-pce-stateful-pce]).  For P2MP this
   is an added advantage, where the size of message is much larger.
   Incase of stateless PCE, a modification of P2MP tree requires
   encoding of all leaves along with the paths in PCReq message, but
   using a stateful PCE with P2MP capability, the PCEP message can be
   used to convey only the modifications (the other information can be
   retrieved from the P2MP LSP identifier in the LSP database (LSPDB)).

   In environments where the P2MP TE LSP placement needs to change in
   response to application demands, it is useful to support dynamic
   creation and tear down of P2MP TE LSPs.  The ability for a PCE to
   trigger the creation of P2MP TE LSPs on demand can be seamlessly
   integrated into a controller-based network architecture, where
   intelligence in the controller can determine when and where to set up
   paths.  Section 3 of [I-D.ietf-pce-pce-initiated-lsp] further

Internet-Draft                STATEFUL-P2MP                   March 2017


   describes the motivation behind the PCE-Initiation capability, which
   are equally applicable for P2MP TE LSPs.

3.2.  Objectives

   The objectives for the protocol extensions to support P2MP TE LSP for
   stateful PCE are same as the objectives described in section 3.2 of
   [I-D.ietf-pce-stateful-pce].

4.  Functions to Support P2MP TE LSPs for Stateful PCEs

   [I-D.ietf-pce-stateful-pce] specifies new functions to support a
   stateful PCE.  It also specifies that a function can be initiated
   either from a PCC towards a PCE (C-E) or from a PCE towards a PCC
   (E-C).

   This document extends these functions to support P2MP TE LSPs.

   Capability Advertisement (E-C,C-E):  both the PCC and the PCE must
      announce during PCEP session establishment that they support PCEP
      Stateful PCE extensions for P2MP using mechanisms defined in
      Section 5.2.

   LSP State Synchronization (C-E):  after the session between the PCC
      and a stateful PCE with P2MP capability is initialized, the PCE
      must learn the state of a PCC's P2MP TE LSPs before it can perform
      path computations or update LSP attributes in a PCC.

   LSP Update Request (E-C):  a stateful PCE with P2MP capability
      requests modification of attributes on a PCC's P2MP TE LSP.

   LSP State Report (C-E):  a PCC sends an LSP state report to a PCE
      whenever the state of a P2MP TE LSP changes.

   LSP Control Delegation (C-E,E-C):  a PCC grants to a PCE the right to
      update LSP attributes on one or more P2MP TE LSPs; the PCE becomes
      the authoritative source of the LSP's attributes as long as the
      delegation is in effect (See Section 5.7 of
      [I-D.ietf-pce-stateful-pce]); the PCC may withdraw the delegation
      or the PCE may give up the delegation at any time.

   PCE-initiated LSP instantiation (E-C):  a PCE sends an LSP Initiate
      Message to a PCC to instantiate or delete a P2MP TE LSP.

Internet-Draft                STATEFUL-P2MP                   March 2017


5.  Architectural Overview of Protocol Extensions

5.1.  Extension of PCEP Messages

   New PCEP messages are defined in [I-D.ietf-pce-stateful-pce] to
   support stateful PCE for P2P TE LSPs.  In this document these
   messages are extended to support P2MP TE LSPs.

   Path Computation State Report (PCRpt):  Each P2MP TE LSP State Report
      in a PCRpt message can contain actual P2MP TE LSP path attributes,
      LSP status, etc.  An LSP State Report carried on a PCRpt message
      is also used in delegation or revocation of control of a P2MP TE
      LSP to/from a PCE.  The extension of PCRpt message is described in
      Section 6.1.

   Path Computation Update Request (PCUpd):  Each P2MP TE LSP Update
      Request in a PCUpd message MUST contain all LSP parameters that a
      PCE wishes to set for a given P2MP TE LSP.  An LSP Update Request
      carried on a PCUpd message is also used to return LSP delegations
      if at any point PCE no longer desires control of a P2MP TE LSP.
      The PCUpd message is described in Section 6.2.

   A new PCEP message is defined in [I-D.ietf-pce-pce-initiated-lsp] to
   support stateful PCE instantiation of P2P TE LSPs.  In this document
   this message is extended to support P2MP TE LSPs.

   Path Computation LSP Initiate Message (PCInitiate):  is a PCEP
      message sent by a PCE to a PCC to trigger P2MP TE LSP
      instantiation or deletion.  The PCInitiate message is described in
      Section 6.5.

   The path computation request (PCReq) and path computation reply
   (PCRep) messages are also extended to support stateful PCE for P2P TE
   LSP in [I-D.ietf-pce-stateful-pce].  In this document these messages
   are extended to support P2MP TE LSPs as well.

5.2.  Capability Advertisement

   During PCEP Initialization Phase, as per Section 7.1.1 of
   [I-D.ietf-pce-stateful-pce], PCEP speakers advertises Stateful
   capability via Stateful PCE Capability TLV in open message.  Two new
   flags are defined for the STATEFUL-PCE-CAPABILITY TLV defined in
   [I-D.ietf-pce-stateful-pce] and updated in
   [I-D.ietf-pce-pce-initiated-lsp] and
   [I-D.ietf-pce-stateful-sync-optimizations].

   Three new bits N (P2MP-CAPABILITY), M (P2MP-LSP-UPDATE-CAPABILITY),
   and P (P2MP-LSP-INSTANTIATION-CAPABILITY) are added in this document:

Internet-Draft                STATEFUL-P2MP                   March 2017


   N (P2MP-CAPABILITY bit - TBD4):  if set to 1 by a PCC, the N Flag
      indicates that the PCC is willing to send P2MP LSP State Reports
      whenever P2MP LSP parameters or operational status changes.; if
      set to 1 by a PCE, the N Flag indicates that the PCE is interested
      in receiving LSP State Reports whenever LSP parameters or
      operational status changes.  The P2MP-CAPABILITY Flag must be
      advertised by both a PCC and a PCE for PCRpt messages P2MP
      extension to be allowed on a PCEP session.

   M (P2MP-LSP-UPDATE-CAPABILITY bit - TBD5):  if set to 1 by a PCC, the
      M Flag indicates that the PCC allows modification of P2MP LSP
      parameters; if set to 1 by a PCE, the M Flag indicates that the
      PCE is capable of updating P2MP LSP parameters.  The P2MP-LSP-
      UPDATE-CAPABILITY Flag must be advertised by both a PCC and a PCE
      for PCUpd messages P2MP extension to be allowed on a PCEP session.

   P (P2MP-LSP-INSTANTIATION-CAPABILITY bit - TBD6):  If set to 1 by a
      PCC, the P Flag indicates that the PCC allows instantiation of an
      P2MP LSP by a PCE.  If set to 1 by a PCE, the P flag indicates
      that the PCE supports P2MP LSP instantiation.  The P2MP-LSP-
      INSTANTIATION-CAPABILITY flag must be set by both PCC and PCE in
      order to support PCE-initiated P2MP LSP instantiation.

   A PCEP speaker should continue to advertise the basic P2MP capability
   via mechanisms as described in [I-D.ietf-pce-rfc6006bis].

5.3.  IGP Extensions for Stateful PCE P2MP Capabilities Advertisement

   When PCCs are LSRs participating in the IGP (OSPF or IS-IS), and PCEs
   are either LSRs or servers also participating in the IGP, an
   effective mechanism for PCE discovery within an IGP routing domain
   consists of utilizing IGP advertisements.  Extensions for the
   advertisement of PCE Discovery Information are defined for OSPF and
   for IS-IS in [RFC5088] and [RFC5089] respectively.

   The PCE-CAP-FLAGS sub-TLV, defined in [RFC5089], is an optional sub-
   TLV used to advertise PCE capabilities.  It MAY be present within the
   PCED sub-TLV carried by OSPF or IS-IS.  [RFC5088] and [RFC5089]
   provide the description and processing rules for this sub-TLV when
   carried within OSPF and IS-IS, respectively.

   The format of the PCE-CAP-FLAGS sub-TLV is included below for easy
   reference:

   Type: 5

   Length: Multiple of 4.

Internet-Draft                STATEFUL-P2MP                   March 2017


   Value: This contains an array of units of 32 bit flags with the most
   significant bit as 0.  Each bit represents one PCE capability.

   PCE capability bits are defined in [RFC5088].  This document defines
   new capability bits for the stateful PCE with P2MP as follows:

               Bit                  Capability
               TBD1                 Active Stateful PCE with P2MP
               TBD2                 Passive Stateful PCE with P2MP
               TBD3                 PCE-Initiation with P2MP

   Note that while active, passive or initiation stateful PCE with P2MP
   capabilities may be advertised during discovery, PCEP Speakers that
   wish to use stateful PCEP MUST advertise stateful PCEP capabilities
   during PCEP session setup, as specified in the current document.  A
   PCC MAY initiate stateful PCEP P2MP capability advertisement at PCEP
   session setup even if it did not receive any IGP PCE capability
   advertisements.

5.4.  State Synchronization

   State Synchronization operations described in Section 5.6 of
   [I-D.ietf-pce-stateful-pce] are applicable for P2MP TE LSPs as well.
   The optimizations described in
   [I-D.ietf-pce-stateful-sync-optimizations] can also be applied for
   P2MP.

5.5.  LSP Delegation

   LSP delegation operations described in Section 5.7 of
   [I-D.ietf-pce-stateful-pce] are applicable for P2MP TE LSPs as well.

5.6.  LSP Operations

5.6.1.  Passive Stateful PCE

   LSP operations for passive stateful PCE described in Section 5.8.1 of
   [I-D.ietf-pce-stateful-pce] are applicable for P2MP TE LSPs as well.

   The Path Computation Request and Response message format for P2MP TE
   LSPs is described in Section 3.4 and Section 3.5 of
   [I-D.ietf-pce-rfc6006bis] respectively.

   The Request and Response message for P2MP TE LSPs are extended to
   support encoding of LSP object, so that it is possible to refer to a
   LSP with a unique identifier and simplify the PCEP message exchange.
   For example, incase of modification of one leaf in a P2MP tree, there
   should be no need to carry the full P2MP tree in PCReq message.

Internet-Draft                STATEFUL-P2MP                   March 2017


   The extension for the Request and Response message for passive
   stateful operations on P2MP TE LSPs are described in Section 6.3 and
   Section 6.4.  The extension for the Path Computation LSP State Report
   (PCRpt) message is described in Section 6.1.

5.6.2.  Active Stateful PCE

   LSP operations for active stateful PCE described in Section 5.8.2 of
   [I-D.ietf-pce-stateful-pce] are applicable for P2MP TE LSPs as well.

   The extension for the Path Computation LSP Update (PCUpd) message for
   active stateful operations on P2MP TE LSPs are described in
   Section 6.2.

5.6.3.  PCE-Initiated LSP

   As per section 5.1 of [I-D.ietf-pce-pce-initiated-lsp], the PCE sends
   a Path Computation LSP Initiate Request (PCInitiate) message to the
   PCC to suggest instantiation or deletion of a P2P TE LSP.  This
   document extends the PCInitiate message to support P2MP TE LSP (see
   details in Section 6.5).

   P2MP TE LSP suggested instantiation and deletion operations are same
   as P2P LSP as described in section 5.3 and 5.4 of
   [I-D.ietf-pce-pce-initiated-lsp].

5.6.3.1.  P2MP TE LSP Instantiation

   The Instantiation operation of P2MP TE LSP is same as defined in
   section 5.3 of [I-D.ietf-pce-pce-initiated-lsp] including handling of
   PLSP-ID, SYMBOLIC-PATH-NAME TLV etc.  Rules of processing and error
   codes remains unchanged.  The N bit MUST be set in LSP object in
   PCInitiate message by PCE to specify the instantiation is for P2MP TE
   LSP.

   Though N bit is set in the LSP object, P2MP-LSP-IDENTIFIER TLV MUST
   NOT be included in the LSP object in PCIntiitate message as it SHOULD
   be generated by PCC and carried in PCRpt message.

5.6.3.2.  P2MP TE LSP Deletion

   The deletion operation of P2MP TE LSP is same as defined in section
   5.4 of [I-D.ietf-pce-pce-initiated-lsp] by sending an LSP Initiate
   Message with an LSP object carrying the PLSP-ID of the LSP to be
   removed and an SRP object with the R flag set (LSP-REMOVE as per
   section 5.2 of [I-D.ietf-pce-pce-initiated-lsp]).  Rules of
   processing and error codes remains unchanged.

5.6.3.3.  Adding and Pruning Leaves for the P2MP TE LSP

   Adding of new leaves and Pruning of old Leaves for the PCE initiated
   P2MP TE LSP MUST be carried in PCUpd message and SHOULD refer
   Section 6.2 for P2MP TE LSP extensions.  As defined in
   [I-D.ietf-pce-rfc6006bis], leaf type = 1 for adding of new leaves,
   leaf type = 2 for pruning of old leaves of P2MP END-POINTS Object are
   used in PCUpd message.

   PCC MAY use the Incremental State Update mechanims as described in
   [RFC4875] to signal adding and pruning of leaves.

5.6.3.4.  P2MP TE LSP Delegation and Cleanup

   P2MP TE LSP delegation and cleanup operations are same as defined in
   section 6 of [I-D.ietf-pce-pce-initiated-lsp].  Rules of processing
   and error codes remains unchanged.

6.  PCEP Message Extensions

6.1.  The PCRpt Message

   As per Section 6.1 of [I-D.ietf-pce-stateful-pce], PCRpt message is
   used to report the current state of a P2P TE LSP.  This document
   extends the PCRpt message in reporting the status of P2MP TE LSP.

   The format of PCRpt message is as follows:

   <intended_attribute_list> is defined in [RFC5440] and
   extended by PCEP extensions.
   <actual_attribute_list> consists of the actual computed and
   signaled values of the <BANDWIDTH> and <metric-lists>
   objects defined in [RFC5440].


   The P2MP END-POINTS object defined in [I-D.ietf-pce-rfc6006bis] is
   mandatory for specifying address of P2MP leaves grouped based on leaf
   types.

   o  New leaves to add (leaf type = 1)

   o  Old leaves to remove (leaf type = 2)

   o  Old leaves whose path can be modified/reoptimized (leaf type = 3)

   o  Old leaves whose path must be left unchanged (leaf type = 4)

   When reporting the status of a P2MP TE LSP, the destinations are
   grouped in END-POINTS object based on the operational status (O field
   in S2LS object) and leaf type (in END-POINTS).  This way the leaves
   that share the same operational status are grouped together.  For
   reporting the status of delegated P2MP TE LSP, leaf-type = 3, where
   as for non-delegated P2MP TE LSP, leaf-type = 4 is used.

   For delegated P2MP TE LSP configuration changes are reported via
   PCRpt message.  For example, adding of new leaves END-POINTS (leaf-
   type = 1) is used where as removing of old leaves (leaf-type = 2) is
   used.

   Note that we preserve compatibility with the
   [I-D.ietf-pce-stateful-pce] definition of <state-report>.  At least
   one instance of <END-POINTS> MUST be present in this message for P2MP
   LSP.

   During state synchronization, the PCRpt message must report the
   status of the full P2MP TE LSP.

   The S2LS object MUST be carried in PCRpt message along with END-
   POINTS object when N bit is set in LSP object for P2MP TE LSP.  If
   the S2LS object is missing, the receiving PCE MUST send a PCErr
   message with Error-type=6 (Mandatory Object missing) and Error-
   value=TBD11 (S2LS object missing).  If the END-POINTS object is
   missing, the receiving PCE MUST send a PCErr message with Error-
   type=6 (Mandatory Object missing) and Error-value=3 (END-POINTS
   object missing) (defined in [RFC5440].

6.2.  The PCUpd Message

   As per Section 6.2 of [I-D.ietf-pce-stateful-pce], PCUpd message is
   used to update P2P TE LSP attributes.  This document extends the
   PCUpd message in updating the attributes of P2MP TE LSP.

   The format of a PCUpd message is as follows:

   [I-D.ietf-pce-stateful-pce] definition of <update-request>.

   The PCC MAY use the make-before-break or sub-group-based procedures
   described in [RFC4875] based on a local policy decision.

   The END-POINTS object MUST be carried in PCUpd message when N bit is
   set in LSP object for P2MP TE LSP.  If the END-POINTS object is
   missing, the receiving PCC MUST send a PCErr message with Error-
   type=6 (Mandatory Object missing) and Error-value=3 (END-POINTS
   object missing) (defined in [RFC5440].

6.3.  The PCReq Message

   As per Section 3.4 of [I-D.ietf-pce-rfc6006bis], PCReq message is
   used for a P2MP path computation request.  This document extends the
   PCReq message such that a PCC MAY include the LSP object in the PCReq
   message if the stateful PCE P2MP capability has been negotiated on a
   PCEP session between the PCC and a PCE.

   reports and state reports sent by the PCC as described in
   [I-D.ietf-pce-stateful-pce].

   The END-POINTS object MUST be carried in PCInitiate message when N
   bit is set in LSP object for P2MP TE LSP.  If the END-POINTS object
   is missing, the receiving PCC MUST send a PCErr message with Error-
   type=6 (Mandatory Object missing) and Error-value=3 (END-POINTS
   object missing) (defined in [RFC5440].

6.6.  Example

6.6.1.  P2MP TE LSP Update Request

   LSP Update Request message is sent by an active stateful PCE to
   update the P2MP TE LSP parameters or attributes.  An example of a
   PCUpd message for P2MP TE LSP is described below:


              Common Header
              SRP
              LSP with P2MP flag set
              END-POINTS for leaf type 3
                ERO list

   In this example, a stateful PCE request updation of path taken by
   some of the leaves in a P2MP tree.  The update request uses the END-
   POINT type 3 (modified/reoptimized).  The ERO list represents the
   S2LS path after modification.  The update message does not need to
   encode the full P2MP tree in this case.

6.6.2.  P2MP TE LSP Report

   LSP State Report message is sent by a PCC to report or delegate the
   P2MP TE LSP.  An example of a PCRpt message for a delegated P2MP TE
   LSP is described below to add new leaves to an existing P2MP TE LSP:


              Common Header
              LSP with P2MP flag set
              END-POINTS for leaf type 1
                S2LS (O=DOWN)
                ERO list (empty)

   An example of a PCRpt message for P2MP TE LSP is described below to
   prune leaves from an existing P2MP TE LSP:


              Common Header
              LSP with P2MP flag set
              END-POINTS for leaf type 2
                S2LS (O=UP)
                ERO list

   An example of a PCRpt message for a delegated P2MP TE LSP is
   described below to report status of leaves in an existing P2MP TE
   LSP:

7.  PCEP Object Extensions

   The PCEP TLV defined in this document is compliant with the PCEP TLV
   format defined in [RFC5440].

7.1.  Extension of LSP Object

   LSP Object is defined in Section 7.3 of [I-D.ietf-pce-stateful-pce].
   It specifies PLSP-ID to uniquely identify an LSP that is constant for
   the life time of a PCEP session.  Similarly for P2MP tunnel, PLSP-ID
   identify a P2MP TE LSP uniquely.  This document adds the following
   flags to the LSP Object:

   N (P2MP bit - TBD7):  If the bit is set to 1, it specifies the
      message is for P2MP TE LSP which MUST be set in PCRpt or PCUpd
      message for a P2MP TE LSP.

   F (Fragmentation bit - TBD8):  If the bit is set to 1, it specifies
      the message is fragmented.

   If P2MP bit is set, the following P2MP-LSP-IDENTIFIER TLV MUST be
   present in LSP object.

7.2.  P2MP-LSP-IDENTIFIER TLV

   The P2MP LSP Identifier TLV MUST be included in the LSP object in
   PCRpt message for RSVP-TE signaled P2MP TE LSPs.  If the TLV is
   missing, the PCE will generate an error with error-type 6 (mandatory
   object missing) and error-value TBD12 (P2MP-LSP-IDENTIFIER TLV
   missing) and close the PCEP session.

   The P2MP LSP Identifier TLV MAY be included in the LSP object in
   PCUpd message for RSVP-TE signaled P2MP TE LSPs.  The special value
   of all zeros for this TLV is used to refer to all paths pertaining to
   a particular PLSP-ID.

   There are two P2MP LSP Identifier TLVs, one for IPv4 and one for
   IPv6.

7.3.  S2LS Object

   The S2LS (Source-to-Leaves) Object is used to report RSVP-TE state of
   one or more destinations (leaves) encoded within the END-POINTS
   object for a P2MP TE LSP.  It MUST be carried in PCRpt message along
   with END-POINTS object when N bit is set in LSP object.

   O(Operational - 3 bits)  the O Field represents the operational
      status of the group of destinations.  The values are as per
      Operational field in LSP object defined in Section 7.3 of
      [I-D.ietf-pce-stateful-pce].

   When N bit is set in LSP object then the O field in LSP object
   represents the operational status of the full P2MP TE LSP and the O
   field in S2LS object represents the operational status of a group of
   destinations encoded within the END-POINTS object.

   Future documents MAY define optional TLVs that MAY be included in the
   S2LS Object.

8.  Message Fragmentation

   The total PCEP message length, including the common header, is 16
   bytes.  In certain scenarios the P2MP report and update request may
   not fit into a single PCEP message (e.g. initial report or update).
   The F-bit is used in the LSP object to signal that the initial
   report, update, or initiate message was too large to fit into a
   single message and will be fragmented into multiple messages.  In
   order to identify the single report or update each message will use
   the same PLSP-ID.  In order to identify that a series of PCInitiate
   messages represents a single Initiate, each message will use the same
   PLSP-ID (in this case 0) and SRP-ID-number.

   Fragmentation procedure described below for report or update message
   is similar to [I-D.ietf-pce-rfc6006bis] which describes request and
   response message fragmentation.

8.1.  Report Fragmentation Procedure

   If the initial report is too large to fit into a single report
   message, the PCC will split the report over multiple messages.  Each
   message sent to the PCE, except the last one, will have the F-bit set
   in the LSP object to signify that the report has been fragmented into
   multiple messages.  In order to identify that a series of report
   messages represents a single report, each message will use the same
   PLSP-ID.

   To indicate P2MP message fragmentation errors associated with a P2MP
   Report, a Error-Type (18) for "P2MP Fragmentation Error" and a new
   error-value TBD13 is used if a PCE has not received the last piece of
   the fragmented message, it should send an error message to the PCC to
   signal that it has received an incomplete message (i.e., "Fragmented
   Report failure").

Internet-Draft                STATEFUL-P2MP                   March 2017


8.2.  Update Fragmentation Procedure

   Once the PCE computes and updates a path for some or all leaves in a
   P2MP TE LSP, an update message is sent to the PCC.  If the update is
   too large to fit into a single update message, the PCE will split the
   update over multiple messages.  Each update message sent by the PCE,
   except the last one, will have the F-bit set in the LSP object to
   signify that the update has been fragmented into multiple messages.
   In order to identify that a series of update messages represents a
   single update, each message will use the same PLSP-ID and SRP-ID-
   number.

   To indicate P2MP message fragmentation errors associated with a P2MP
   Update request, a Error-Type (18) for "P2MP Fragmentation Error" and
   a new error-value TBD14 is used if a PCC has not received the last
   piece of the fragmented message, it should send an error message to
   the PCE to signal that it has received an incomplete message (i.e.,
   "Fragmented Update failure").

8.3.  PCIntiate Fragmentation Procedure

   Once the PCE initiates to set up the P2MP TE LSP, a PCInitiate
   message is sent to the PCC.  If the PCInitiate is too large to fit
   into a single PCInitiate message, the PCE will split the PCInitiate
   over multiple messages.  Each PCInitiate message sent by the PCE,
   except the last one, will have the F-bit set in the LSP object to
   signify that the PCInitiate has been fragmented into multiple
   messages.  In order to identify that a series of PCInitiate messages
   represents a single Initiate, each message will use the same PLSP-ID
   (in this case 0) and SRP-ID-number.

   To indicate P2MP message fragmentation errors associated with a P2MP
   PCInitiate, a Error-Type (18) for "P2MP Fragmentation Error" and a
   new error-value TBD15 is used if a PCC has not received the last
   piece of the fragmented message, it should send an error message to
   the PCE to signal that it has received an incomplete message (i.e.,
   "Fragmented Instantiation failure").

9.  Non-Support of P2MP TE LSPs for Stateful PCE

   The PCEP protocol extensions described in this document for stateful
   PCEs with P2MP capability MUST NOT be used if PCE has not advertised
   its stateful capability with P2MP as per Section 5.2.  If the PCEP
   Speaker on the PCC supports the extensions of this draft (understands
   the P2MP flag in the LSP object) but did not advertise this
   capability, then upon receipt of PCUpd message from the PCE, it
   SHOULD generate a PCErr with error-type 19 (Invalid Operation),
   error-value TBD17 (Attempted LSP Update Request for P2MP if active

Internet-Draft                STATEFUL-P2MP                   March 2017


   stateful PCE capability for P2MP was not advertised).  If the PCEP
   Speaker on the PCE supports the extensions of this draft (understands
   the P2MP flag in the LSP object) but did not advertise this
   capability, then upon receipt of a PCRpt message from the PCC, it
   SHOULD generate a PCErr with error-type 19 (Invalid Operation),
   error-value TBD16 (Attempted LSP State Report for P2MP if stateful
   PCE capability for P2MP was not advertised) and it will terminate the
   PCEP session.

   If a Stateful PCE receives a P2MP TE LSP report message and the PCE
   does not understand the P2MP flag in the LSP object, and therefore
   the PCEP extensions described in this document, then the Stateful PCE
   would act as per [I-D.ietf-pce-stateful-pce].

   The PCEP protocol extensions described in this document for PCC or
   PCE with instantiation capability for P2MP TE LSPs MUST NOT be used
   if PCC or PCE has not advertised its stateful capability with
   Instantiation and P2MP capability as per Section 5.2.  If the PCEP
   Speaker on the PCC supports the extensions of this draft (understands
   the P (P2MP-LSP-INSTANTIATION-CAPABILITY) flag in the LSP object) but
   did not advertise this capability, then upon receipt of PCInitiate
   message from the PCE, it SHOULD generate a PCErr with error-type 19
   (Invalid Operation), error-value TBD18 (Attempted LSP Instantiation
   Request for P2MP if stateful PCE instantiation capability for P2MP
   was not advertised).

10.  Manageability Considerations

   All manageability requirements and considerations listed in
   [RFC5440], [I-D.ietf-pce-rfc6006bis], [I-D.ietf-pce-stateful-pce],
   and [I-D.ietf-pce-pce-initiated-lsp] apply to PCEP protocol
   extensions defined in this document.  In addition, requirements and
   considerations listed in this section apply.

10.1.  Control of Function and Policy

   A PCE or PCC implementation MUST allow configuring the stateful PCEP
   capability, the LSP Update capability, and the LSP Initiation
   capability for P2MP LSPs.

10.2.  Information and Data Models

   The PCEP YANG module [I-D.ietf-pce-pcep-yang] SHOULD be extended to
   include advertised P2MP stateful capabilities, P2MP synchronization
   status, and delegation status of P2MP LSP etc.  The statistics module
   should also count P2MP LSP related data.

   and [I-D.ietf-pce-pce-initiated-lsp].

10.5.  Requirements On Other Protocols

   Mechanisms defined in this document do not imply any new requirements
   on other protocols.

10.6.  Impact On Network Operations

   Mechanisms defined in this document do not have any impact on network
   operations in addition to those already listed in [RFC5440],
   [I-D.ietf-pce-rfc6006bis], [I-D.ietf-pce-stateful-pce], and
   [I-D.ietf-pce-pce-initiated-lsp].

   Stateful PCE feature for P2MP LSP would help with network operations.

12.  Security Considerations

   The stateful operations on P2MP TE LSP are more CPU-intensive and
   also utilize more bandwidth on wire.  In the event of an unauthorized
   stateful P2MP operations, or a denial of service attack, the
   subsequent PCEP operations may be disruptive to the network.
   Consequently, it is important that implementations conform to the
   relevant security requirements of [RFC5440],
   [I-D.ietf-pce-rfc6006bis] and [I-D.ietf-pce-stateful-pce], and
   [I-D.ietf-pce-pce-initiated-lsp].  Further [I-D.ietf-pce-pceps]
   discusses an enhanced approach to provide secure transport for PCEP
   via Transport Layer Security (TLS).
