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 and
   without necessarily completely replacing it.  Thus, the LSP can be
   calculated/set up/initiated and the label forwarding entries can also
   be downloaded through a centralized PCE server to each network device
   along the path while leveraging the existing PCE technologies as much
   as possible.

   This document specifies the procedures and 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 a segment routing (SR) network and telling the
   edge routers what instructions to attach to packets as they enter the
   network.  PCECC is further enhanced for SR-MPLS SID (Segment
   Identifier) allocation and distribution.
