Abstract:
The Path Computation Element (PCE) is a core component of Software-
Defined Networking (SDN) systems. A PCE-based Central Controller
(PCECC) can simplify the processing of a distributed control plane by
blending it with elements of SDN without necessarily completely
replacing it.
This document specifies the procedures and Path Computation Element
Communication Protocol (PCEP) extensions when a PCE-based controller
is also responsible for configuring the forwarding actions on the
routers, in addition to computing the paths for packet flows in an
SRv6 (SR in IPv6) network and telling the edge routers, what
instructions to attach to packets as they enter the network. PCECC
is further enhanced for SRv6 Segment Identifier (SID) allocation and
distribution.
