[Dhruv]: I guess this would depend on the PCE behavior during inter-AS path
computation i.e. PCE may feel the area id subobject is irrelevent and
strips from the XRO before sending the request to another PCE
​ or it might keep it intact. ​


This would be in s
​pi​
rit of RFC 4874 where
​-


​      ​
The number of subobjects to be avoided, specified in the
   signaled XRO, may be constant throughout the whole path setup, or the
   subobjects to be avoided may be removed from the XRO as they become
   irrelevant in the subsequent hops of the path setup.

We can always
​use ​
EXRS in IRO specify the intentions much more clearly.

If you agree, we can work on some text to add.

[Dhruv]: The draft was initially on standard track :)
I can live with the name change.

​[Dhruv]: Could you help frame this text, here is the initial version.

Note that it is advised that PCC should use AS are Area subobject while
building the domain-sequence in IRO and avoid using other mechanism to
change the "current AS" and "current Area" as described above.

Dhruv
