Hi,
We have written a new draft about PCE's applicability and its role in boundary
node protection. It has covered the aspects of finding merge point in case of
facility backup for FRR in various cases and to compute bypass path.
It is complex for a point of local repair(PLR) node to find the merge
point(MP) in case of boundary node protection, because the PLR doesn't have the
full TED visibility. And, It becomes more complicated to find merge point when
confidentiality(path key) is enabled. Draft addresses about these cases.
Request you to have a look at draft. We welcome your comments and suggestions.
Thanks.
Venu

Abstract:
Path computation element (PCE) can be used to compute a label
switched path that spans across multiple domains. This document
explain the mechanism of Fast Re-Route (FRR) where a point of local
repair (PLR) needs to find the appropriate merge point (MP) to do
bypass path computation using PCE. In case of boundary node
protection when PCE confidentiality (path key) is enabled, new
mechanisms are suggested in this document.
