The IESG has approved the following document: - 'Conveying path setup type in PCEP messages' (draft-ietf-pce-lsp-setup-type-10.txt) as Proposed Standard This document is the product of the Path Computation Element Working Group. The IESG contact persons are Alvaro Retana, Martin Vigoureux and Deborah Brungard. A URL of this Internet Draft is: https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-pce-lsp-setup-type/ Technical Summary A Path Computation Element can compute traffic engineering paths (TE paths) through a network that are subject to various constraints. Currently, TE paths are label switched paths (LSPs) which are set up using the RSVP-TE signaling protocol. However, other TE path setup methods are possible within the PCE architecture. This document proposes an extension to PCEP to allow support for different path setup methods over a given PCEP session. Working Group Summary No controversy. The capability feature added after the 1st LC resulted in a significant change, agreed on the list, and a 2nd WGLC. Document Quality There are several PCEP implementations supporting Segment Routing, which implies the support of this I-D. The discussion on the list about backward compatible changes showed the I-D is implemented. Are there any reviewers that merit special mention as having done a thorough review, e.g., one that resulted in important changes or a conclusion that the document had no substantive issues? As shepherd, Julien triggered the latest changes about a missing feature. Personnel Who is the Document Shepherd for this document? Julien Meuric Who is the Responsible Area Director?
