Technical Summary

   This document introduces a mechanism to mark some of the Path
   Computation Element (PCE) Communication Protocol (PCEP) objects as
   optional during PCEP messages exchange for the Stateful PCE model to
   allow relaxing some constraints during path computation and setup.
   This document introduces this relaxation to stateful PCE and updates
   RFC 8231.

Working Group Summary

Nothing significant to report.
