Hi all, A new version of the inter-layer PCC-PCE communication requirements has been published: http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-ietf-pce-inter-layer-req-01.txt
Main changes: - Texts related to the applicability of PCEs for inter-layer path computation were moved to the applicability draft, http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-oki-pce-inter-layer-app-00.txt - Section 5.1.2: New requirements on control of the type of path to be computed, were added. The definition of mono-layer path and multi-layer path was moved here from original section 4. - Several texts were re-written for the sake of clarity. Any comments and suggestions are highly appreciated. Thank you.
