Weibin,

One could have an algo with MSD/ERLD as optimizations constrains, would be 
quite similar to colored links. Note - ERLD has implemented node capabilities 
only, so all links on a node will have to be pruned.
The tradeoffs are - having centralized controller with global view computing a 
path that meets the constraints(classical BGP-LS + PCEP scenario) vs building a 
dynamic topology of connected nodes that meet a set of constrains, in first 
case, change in topology/capabilities would cause path 
recalculation/reoptimization on the PCE while in the second - IGP would 
recompute the topology locally.

Regards,
Jeff
