The IESG has received a request from the Path Computation Element WG (pce) to consider the following document: - 'Ability for a Stateful Path Computation Element (PCE) to request and obtain control of a Label Switched Path (LSP)' <draft-ietf-pce-lsp-control-request-07.txt> as Proposed Standard The IESG plans to make a decision in the next few weeks, and solicits final comments on this action. Please send substantive comments to the ietf@ietf.org mailing lists by 2019-08-28. Exceptionally, comments may be sent to iesg@ietf.org instead. In either case, please retain the beginning of the Subject line to allow automated sorting. Abstract A Stateful Path Computation Element (PCE) retains information about the placement of Multiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS) Traffic Engineering Label Switched Paths (TE LSPs). When a PCE has stateful control over LSPs it may send indications to LSP head-ends to modify the attributes (especially the paths) of the LSPs. A Path Computation Client (PCC) has set up LSPs under local configuration may delegate control of those LSPs to a stateful PCE. There are use-cases in which a stateful PCE may wish to obtain control of locally configured LSPs of which it is aware but that have not been delegated to the PCE. This document describes an extension to the Path Computation Element communication Protocol (PCEP) to enable a PCE to make such requests. The file can be obtained via https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-pce-lsp-control-request/ IESG discussion can be tracked via https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-pce-lsp-control-request/ballot/ No IPR declarations have been submitted directly on this I-D.
