The following errata report has been submitted for RFC5440, "Path Computation Element (PCE) Communication Protocol (PCEP)".
-------------------------------------- You may review the report below and at: http://www.rfc-editor.org/errata_search.php?rfc=5440&eid=2940 -------------------------------------- Type: Technical Reported by: Ramon Casellas <[email protected]> Section: 5 Original Text ------------- PCEP operates over TCP using a registered TCP port (4189). This allows the requirements of reliable messaging and flow control to be met without further protocol work. All PCEP messages MUST be sent using the registered TCP port for the source and destination TCP port. Corrected Text -------------- PCEP operates over TCP using a registered TCP port (4189). This allows the requirements of reliable messaging and flow control to be met without further protocol work. A PCE MUST listen for incoming connections at the registered port and a PCC SHOULD use the registered port as source port but MAY use any source port (e.g. ephemeral port). In other words, a PCC connecting to a remote PCE is not constrained to use the registered TCP port as the TCP source port, although it MAY use it.
