PCE-Based Computation Procedure to Compute
Shortest Constrained Point-to-Multipoint (P2MP) Inter-Domain
Traffic Engineering Label Switched Paths
Abstract
The ability to compute paths for constrained point-to-multipoint
(P2MP) Traffic Engineering Label Switched Paths (TE LSPs) across
multiple domains has been identified as a key requirement for the
deployment of P2MP services in MPLS- and GMPLS-controlled networks.
The Path Computation Element (PCE) has been recognized as an
appropriate technology for the determination of inter-domain paths of
P2MP TE LSPs.
This document describes an experiment to provide procedures and
extensions to the PCE Communication Protocol (PCEP) for the
computation of inter-domain paths for P2MP TE LSPs.
