At this point, the PCC MAY delegate the LSP to another PCE. the LSP is an "orphan" until the expiration of the State Timeout timer. Some coordination between PCEs is still needed, for the original PCE to regain control over that LSP the current PCE must forfeit control over that LSP. In addition there is no Error to indicate to the PCE that he can't have the delegation back, this should be added , for instance 24,4 LSP instantiation error, Requested delegation rejected, another PCE has the delegation. (ideally allow the optional inclusion of the other PCE SPEAKER-IDENTITY-ID for troubleshooting. it should be subject to security policies) > Response will be appreciated. > > > > Thanks a lot. > > > > Regards, > > Venu > > > > Regards, Cyril > _______________________________________________ > Pce mailing list > Pce@ietf.org > https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/pce > >
