I endorse the revised text that minimally RECOMMENDs the use of “mutually-authenticated and encrypted sessions.” My question is why can’t we go even further and require (use MUST) this crucial provisioning channel always be protected. When would we NOT want to use TLS? I appreciate that mandating the use of security primitives in routing is challenging due to a long tail of legacy investment. However, this extension seems like a near "green field" focused on a modern, SDN architecture which seems unlikely to have less capable legacy elements. Shuping> This is a case of blending elements of SDN into the existing distributed control plane and devices without necessarily completely replacing it and enhancing PCEP as an SBI. It is true that the central control instructions allows greater control to label allocation but it is not far from what is already done for segment routing label stack (which uses 'RECOMMEND').
