The IESG has approved the following document: - 'PCEP extensions for GMPLS' (draft-ietf-pce-gmpls-pcep-extensions-16.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-gmpls-pcep-extensions/ Technical Summary Although [RFC4655] defines the PCE architecture and framework for both MPLS and GMPLS networks, most preexisting PCEP RFCs [RFC5440], [RFC5521], [RFC5541], [RFC5520] are focused on MPLS networks, and do not cover the wide range of GMPLS networks. This document complements these RFCs by addressing the extensions required for GMPLS applications and routing requests, for example for OTN and WSON networks. Working Group Summary Though uncontroversial, this work had a long life. Some other work with strong market demand (stateful PCE, mainly) came along and this document got stuck for a while in the WG's and chairs' backlog. Document Quality There are several implementations, commercial and open source, of the base protocol. The extensions from this document were implemented (at least partially) by some work from the research community. Open source (OpenDaylight) is in the pipe. At lest two vendors worked on the document. The implementation by a few optical vendors is mentioned by some (available) research publications.
