There is seemingly conflicting guidance on the interpreting the E and L flag. Statement #1 When E flag is set to 0, the value of the L flag SHOULD be respected as selection criteria; Statement #2 When the L flag is set to 1 and the E flag is set to 0, then the PCE MUST consider the protection eligibility as a PROTECTION PREFERRED constraint. Statement #3 When L flag is set to 0 and E flag is set to 1, then the PCE MUST consider the protection eligibility as an UNPROTECTED MANDATORY constraint. -- The Statement #1 appears to be weaker (SHOULD) than Statement #2 and 3. -- What is the difference between “respecting [something] in the selection criteria” and “consider[ing] the protection eligibility”? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- COMMENT: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Thank you to Rifaat Shekh-Yusef for the SECDIR review. ** Abstract. This document updates RFC5440 but does not explicitly say that in this section. ** Section 7. Securing the PCEP session using Transport Layer Security (TLS) [RFC8253], as per the recommendations and best current practices in [RFC7525] is RECOMMENDED. RFC7525 has been replaced by RFC9325. _______________________________________________ Pce mailing list Pce@ietf.org https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/pce
