[Pce] Association Source in draft-ietf-pce-segment-routing-policy-cp-01
Hi Authors, In https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-pce-segment-routing-policy-cp-01#section-4.2 , you state - The Association Source MUST be set to the PCC's address. This >applies for both PCC-initiated and PCE-initiated candidate paths. >The reasoning for this is that if different PCEs could set their own >Association Source, then the candidate paths instantiated by >different PCEs would by definition be in different PCEP Associations, >which contradicts our requirement that the SR Policy is represented >by an Association. > >The Association ID MUST be chosen by the PCC when the SR policy is >allocated. In PCRpt messages from the PCC, the Association ID MUST >be set to the unique value that was allocated by the PCC at the time >of policy creation. In PCInit messages from the PCE, the Association >ID MUST be set to the reserved value 0, which indicates that the PCE >is asking the PCC to choose an ID value. The PCE MUST NOT send the >Extended Association ID TLV in the PCInit messages. But the base RFC 8697 https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc8697.html#section-6.1.3 gave quite a bit of leeway while setting the association source. Consider 2 PCEs - PCE1 & PCE2, I am assuming if candidate paths are created via two different PCEs both will be aware of SR Policy identifiers (color, end-point, etc). When PCE1 initiates CP1, it could use the association source as Virtual-IP or NMS (instead of PCE1). The PCE2 will learn about the association and the corresponding SR policy parameters via the PCRpt message which is sent to both PCEs. So when the PCE2 initiates CP2, it could use the same association! This was the very reason to include the flexibility in setting the association source in RFC 8697. Julien and I discussed this and we feel you are trying to solve the issue of sharing an association ID between several PCEs by using a new mean than the one in RFC 8697. If you have other reasons then please state them, otherwise, RFC 8697 should take precedence. Thanks! Dhruv & Julien PS. I quickly drew a figure if that helps (see attached)!

Re: [Pce] WG adoption poll for draft-stone-pce-local-protection-enforcement-02.
Hi Tarek, There is a proposal [1] to extend the support for the P (Processing-Rule) and I (Ignore) flag in the common object header (of PCEP objects, originally from RFC 5440) to stateful PCEP messages. Do check it out and let the WG know if that covers what you have in mind. Thanks!

Re: [Pce] WG adoption poll for draft-stone-pce-local-protection-enforcement-02.
I believe the issue the draft is tackling is useful and I support adoption. I also believe the idea of "enforcing" a constraint can be generalized (e.g. to other constraints). Ideally, we can consider an approach that can be extended to other constraints in future too.

Would be good to have adopted to move to early IANA codepoint allocations to allow implementation to progress further, as well as further WG refinement.
