Abstract:
The PCE is a core component of Software-Defined Networking (SDN)
systems.
A PCE-based Central Controller (PCECC) can simplify the processing of
a distributed control plane by blending it with elements of SDN and
without necessarily completely replacing it. This document specifies
the procedures and Path Computation Element Communication Protocol
(PCEP) extensions when a PCE-based controller is also responsible for
configuring the forwarding actions on the routers, in addition to
computing the paths for packet flows in the for Segment Routing (SR)
in IPv6 (SRv6) network and telling the edge routers what instructions
to attach to packets as they enter the network. PCECC is further
enhanced for SRv6 SID (Segment Identifier) allocation and
distribution.
