draft-fuxh-ccamp-boundary-explicit-control-ext-00

Abstract

[draft-fuxh-pce-boundary-explicit-control-framework-00] defines the framework for explicit control of region boundary in PCE-based inter-layer architecture. This document defines the RSVP-TE extension for region boundaries explicit control.

1.  Introduction

[draft-fuxh-pce-boundary-explicit-control-framework-00] defines the framework for explicit control of region boundary in PCE-based inter-layer architecture. There is a requirements for RSVP-TE extensions to support explicit control of region boundary. A new object could be introduced in RSVP-TE signaling message.

2.  ERBO (Explicit Region Boundary Object)

The format of ERBO object is the same as an ERO. The ERBO including the region boundaries information can be carried in Path message.

3.  RSVP-TE Extension

The Pathe message is extended as followings:

     <Path Message> ::= <Common Header> [ <INTEGRITY> ]
                   [ [<MESSAGE_ID_ACK> | <MESSAGE_ID_NACK>] ... ]
                   [ <MESSAGE_ID> ]
                   <SESSION> <RSVP_HOP>
                   <TIME_VALUES>
                   [ <EXPLICIT_ROUTE> ]
                   [ < ERBO > ]
                   <LABEL_REQUEST>
                   [ <PROTECTION> ]
                   [ <LABEL_SET> ... ]
                   [ <SESSION_ATTRIBUTE> ]
                   [ <NOTIFY_REQUEST> ]
                   [ <ADMIN_STATUS> ]
                   [ <POLICY_DATA> ... ]
                   <sender descriptor>
      <sender descriptor> ::=  <SENDER_TEMPLATE> <SENDER_TSPEC>
                         [ <ADSPEC> ]
                         [ <RECORD_ROUTE> ]
                         [ <SUGGESTED_LABEL> ]
                         [ <RECOVERY_LABEL> ]
                         <UPSTREAM_LABEL>
