The ability to compute shortest constrained Traffic Engineering Label
Switched Paths (TE LSPs) in Multiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS) and
Generalized MPLS (GMPLS) networks across multiple domains has been
identified as a key requirement. In this context, a domain is a
collection of network elements within a common sphere of address
management or path computational responsibility such as an Interior
Gateway Protocol (IGP) area or an Autonomous System (AS). This
document specifies a representation and encoding of a domain
sequence, which is defined as an ordered sequence of domains
traversed to reach the destination domain to be used by Path
Computation Elements (PCEs) to compute inter-domain constrained
shortest paths across a predetermined sequence of domains. This
document also defines new subobjects to be used to encode domain
identifiers.
This document is a product of the Path Computation Element Working Group of the IETF.
