Hi Dhruv, In case of path-computation done by PCE based on content of FAD (probably vast majority of cases), optimization metric will be specified in FAD, so it will not be possible to optimize based on other metric type on top of that.
For original question: I agree with PSF – it would be probably too complex to try to define such behavior in the draft. On top of that, such requirement can potentially come for non-Flex-algo paths as well. I can still imagine achieving something like that for example with 2 candidate-paths: * 1st CP (preferred) which will be limited to intra-domain paths using some constraints * 2nd CP which will not have any restrictions and which can be used in case of no intra-domain path That can be achieved with metric bound of metric pointed out by Dhruv, affinity,… set for 1st CP. Theoretically same thing can be achieved by setting MSD bound in 1st CP as with Flex-algo path-computation will probably result in just one SID anyway (Flex-algo SID of destination) – at least if other constraints are not applied on top of that.

Note that we do have a metric type "T=20: Domain Count metric (number of domains crossed)."; we can simply use this metric type, asking the PCE to optimize based on this which should lead to preferring intra-domain paths. See https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc8685.html#section-3.5 Thanks!

For a given <ingress PE, egress PE> that belongs to the same domain, it may be the default policy for PCE to calculate a candidate path intra domain. Otherwise, it may bring unnecessary complexity. For example, for a real inter-domain path requirement of <ingress PE, egress PE> that belongs to the different domain, the intention is to split the path calculation requirements into multiple domains, e.g, <ingress PE, ABR1> for domain 1, <ABR1, ABR2> for domain 2, etc. Now, in this case, does <ingress PE, ABR1> itself again get a inter-domain path ? In theory, yes. But in reality, it doesn't make sense.

In my understanding in each IGP Domain the Flex-Algo is calculated independently of each other domain. The PCE should have the view of all IGP domains, including IGP metrics and delay metrics. So if the PCE calculate a path and ingress and egress PE are in the same IGP domain, It would be preferable to choose an IGP intra domain vs using another IGP as transit. Or at least have the possibility to choose or prefer an Intra-Domain path (with a flag maybe?) Reason: Especially in mobile operator RAN networks, there could be bandwidth limitations in RAN IGP domains, but still a lower delay path. What’s your opinion about this?
