Abstract:
A Stateful Path Computation Element (PCE) maintains information on
the current network state, including: computed Label Switched Path
(LSPs), reserved resources within the network, and pending path
computation requests. This information may then be considered when
computing new traffic engineered LSPs, and for associated and
dependent LSPs, received from Path Computation Clients (PCCs). The
Path computation response from a PCE is helpful for the PCC to
gracefully establish the computed LSP.
The Hierarchical Path Computation Element (H-PCE) architecture,
provides an architecture to allow the optimum sequence of
inter-connected domains to be selected, and network policy to be
applied if applicable, via the use of a hierarchical relationship
between PCEs.
Combining the capabilities of Stateful PCE and the Hierarchical PCE
would be advantageous. This document describes general considerations
and use cases for the deployment of Stateful, and not Stateless, PCEs
using the Hierarchical PCE architecture.
