A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories. This draft is a work item of the Path Computation Element WG of the IETF. Title : Ability for a stateful Path Computation Element (PCE) to request and obtain control of a LSP Authors : Aswatnarayan Raghuram Al Goddard Chaitanya Yadlapalli Jay Karthik Siva Sivabalan Jon Parker Mahendra Singh Negi Filename: draft-ietf-pce-lsp-control-request-04.txt Pages : 11 Date: 2019-06-04 Abstract: The stateful Path Computation Element (PCE) communication Protocol (PCEP) extensions provide stateful control of Multiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS) Traffic Engineering Label Switched Paths (TE LSP) via PCEP, for a model where a Path Computation Client (PCC) delegates control over one or more locally configured LSPs to a stateful PCE. There are use-cases in which a stateful PCE may wish to request and obtain control of one or more LSPs from a PCC. This document describes a simple extension to stateful PCEP to achieve such an objective.

[Pce] I-D Action: draft-ietf-pce-association-diversity-07.txt
A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories. This draft is a work item of the Path Computation Element WG of the IETF. Title : Path Computation Element communication Protocol (PCEP) extension for signaling LSP diversity constraint Authors : Stephane Litkowski Siva Sivabalan Colby Barth Mahendra Singh Negi Filename: draft-ietf-pce-association-diversity-07.txt Pages : 22 Date: 2019-06-04 Abstract: This document introduces a simple mechanism to associate a group of Label Switched Paths (LSPs) via an extension to the Path Computation Element (PCE) Communication Protocol (PCEP) with the purpose of computing diverse paths for those LSPs. The proposed extension allows a Path Computation Client (PCC) to advertise to a PCE that a particular LSP belongs to a disjoint-group, thus the PCE knows that LSPs in the same group needs to be disjoint from each other.

A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories. This draft is a work item of the Path Computation Element WG of the IETF. Title : PCEP Extensions for Associating Working and Protection LSPs with Stateful PCE Authors : Hariharan Ananthakrishnan Siva Sivabalan Colby Barth Raveendra Torvi Ina Minei Edward Crabbe Mahendra Singh Negi Filename: draft-ietf-pce-stateful-path-protection-05.txt Pages : 16 Date: 2019-06-04 Abstract: A stateful Path Computation Element (PCE) is capable of computing as well as controlling via Path Computation Element Communication Protocol (PCEP) Multiprotocol Label Switching Traffic Engineering Label Switched Paths (MPLS LSP). Furthermore, it is also possible for a stateful PCE to create, maintain, and delete LSPs. This document describes PCEP extension to associate two or more LSPs to provide end-to-end path protection.

Re: [Pce] Chair review of draft-ietf-pce-association-diversity
Hi, Thanks for making the update (-07). Just one more nit in the update - https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-pce-association-diversity-07 Section 4.1 As per [I-D.ietf-pce-association-group], LSPs are associated with other LSPs with which they interact by adding them to a common association group. The Association parameters, as described in [I-D.ietf-pce-association-group] as the combination of the mandatory fields Association type, Association ID and Association Source in the ASSOCIATION object, that uniquely identify the association group belonging to this association. Not sure about "belonging to this association". I feel we should just stop at "that uniquely identify the association group."

Re: [Pce] Chair review of draft-ietf-pce-stateful-path-protection
Hi Mahendra, Thanks for making the update (-05). I see a few non-blocking issues that can handled later. https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-pce-stateful-path-protection-05 (1) You added - [RFC8051] describes applicability of Path protection in PCE deployment. I suggest change this to - [RFC8051] describes applicability of path protection for stateful PCE deployments. (2) Add a space between "Report" and "(" in "Report(PCRpt) message", similarly for "Report(PCRpt) message" and "Initiate(PCInitiate) message" (3) Number of authors is still an issue that needs to be handled, either by reducing the number of co-authors or providing a justification. Please do so before we ship this out of the WG. Thanks for handling my other comments.

Re: [Pce] WG LC prep for draft-ietf-pce-lsp-control-request
Hi, Thanks for the posting the update (-04) with the Implementation Status. https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-pce-lsp-control-request-04#section-5 I see the number of co-authors is not resolved, but that's okay, just do so before we ship the document out of the WG. We will start the WG LC and IPR poll shortly.
