A Path Computation Element (PCE) can compute Traffic Engineering (TE)
paths through a network; these paths are subject to various
constraints. Currently, TE paths are Label Switched Paths (LSPs)
that 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 the PCE Communication Protocol
(PCEP) to allow support for different path setup methods over a given
PCEP session.
This document is a product of the Path Computation Element Working Group of the IETF.
This is now a Proposed Standard.
STANDARDS TRACK: This document specifies an Internet Standards Track
protocol for the Internet community, and requests discussion and suggestions
for improvements. Please refer to the current edition of the Official
Internet Protocol Standards (https://www.rfc-editor.org/standards) for the
