Hi Ina & Authors,
Now that we have new WG charter, I think it is a good time to clarify
applicability of PCE-Stateful.
Following are some of my observations that can be considered in your next
revisions of draft:
1. We need to scope the PCE-Stateful applicability, i.e., clarify
explicitly where vanilla PCE can be sufficient or PCE-Stateful could be an
overkill.
- Similarly, it would be nice to describe deployments of Passive
Stateful PCE and with Active Stateful PCE separately
I think draft describes goodness of Stateful well, however, it should
provide guidelines for choosing right set of PCE-stateful features.
Few basic applications (I am not sure this draft covers them explicitly)
from PCC Scale point of view:
2. I think draft should describe on performance w/ PCE-Stateful
i.e., How PCE Stateful helps in dynamic changes compared to NMS based.
3. One obvious applicability of Active PCE-Stateful would be : config
scaling. Operators do not have to maintain tons of LSP configuration on the
box.
4. LSP monitoring is less expensive with PCE Stateful, as PCE is expected
to maintain complete state.
This reduces burden on routers.
Thanks,
Ravi
