Scenarios and Simulation Results of PCE in a Native IP Network
RFC 8735

Received changes through RFC Editor sync (created alias RFC 8735, changed title to 'Scenarios and Simulation Results of PCE in a Native IP Network', changed abstract to 'Requirements for providing the End-to-End (E2E) performance assurance are emerging within the service provider networks. While there are various technology solutions, there is no single solution that can fulfill these requirements for a native IP network. In particular, there is a need for a universal E2E solution that can cover both intra- and inter-domain scenarios.

One feasible E2E traffic-engineering solution is the addition of central control in a native IP network. This document describes various complex scenarios and simulation results when applying the Path Computation Element (PCE) in a native IP network. This solution, referred to as Centralized Control Dynamic Routing (CCDR), integrates the advantage of using distributed protocols and the power of a centralized control technology, providing traffic engineering for native IP networks in a manner that applies equally to intra- and inter-domain scenarios.', changed pages to 16, changed standardization level to Informational, changed state to RFC, added RFC published event at 2020-02-28, changed IESG state to RFC Published)
