This reminds me to check if draft-ietf-pce-questions touches upon this issue and I find the following description (in Section 3): 釤 It has also been proposed that the PCE Communication Protocol (PCEP) [RFC5440] could be extended to serve as an information collection protocol to supply information from network devices to a PCE. The logic is that the network devices may already speak PCEP and so the protocol could easily be used to report details about the resources and state in the network, including the LSP state discussed in Sections 14 and 15. 釤 So, indeed this draft discusses something interesting. Would be good to hear how other PCErs think about this. YOUNG>> Indeed, I think what you quoted is in the spirit of this draft in light of draft-ietf-pce-questions. BTW, by browsing through the content, it seems that there are no extensions included so far. Since the document type is standard track, I wonder if the intention is to include PCEP extensions in the future or the draft actually meant to be informational only? YOUNG>> We intended this draft to be protocol enhancement. For 00 version, we did not have time to put this aspect. But, we will definitely add details in the revision.

The motivation for this work is a timely update of TE data directly from nodes to PCE(s) to support scenarios like: (i) networks that do not support IGP-TE or BGP-LS but want to implement PCE. (ii) applications that require accurate and timely TE data that current convergence time associated with flooding is not justified. (iii) reduction of node OH processing of flooding mechanisms (esp. optical transport networks where there are large amounts of traffic data and constraints due to OTN/WSON/Flexi-grid, etc. Note that also BGP-LS is not supported in optical transport networks today) Your comment will always be appreciated.

Name: draft-lee-pce-transporting-te-data Revision: 00 Title: PCEP Extensions in Support of Transporting Traffic Engineering Data Document date: 2014-07-02 Group: Individual Submission Pages: 20 URL: http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-lee-pce-transporting-te-data-00.txt Status: https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-lee-pce-transporting-te-data/ Htmlized: http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-lee-pce-transporting-te-data-00 Abstract: In order to compute and provide optimal paths, Path Computation Elements (PCEs) require an accurate and timely Traffic Engineering Database (TED). Traditionally this TED has been obtained from a link state routing protocol supporting traffic engineering extensions. This document discusses possible alternatives to TED creation. This document gives architectural alternatives for these enhancements and their potential impacts on network nodes, routing protocols, and PCE. Please note that it may take a couple of minutes from the time of submission until the htmlized version and diff are available at tools.ietf.org.
