Hi All, Following on from my request for H-PCE implementation experience. I would like to highlight some European Research that utilized the DNS-based PCE Discovery proposal:
Path Computation Element (PCE) Discovery using Domain Name System(DNS) https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-wu-pce-dns-pce-discovery/ The experiment uses virtual instances of VNF-based (Virtualized Network Function) PCE's. Benefits include: - (Virtual) PCEs are instantiated on demand - PCEs Perceived as a single VNF - PCEP Sessions are load-balanced The research ("Transport PCE Network Function Virtualization") is documented in Proceedings of European Conference on Optical Communication (ECOC 2014), 21-25 September, Cannes (France), and available via: http://www.cttc.es/publication/transport-pce-network-function-virtualization / The authors of draft-wu-pce-dns-pce-discovery plan to include the findings in an appendix of the aforementioned I-D.
