Applicability of PCE for Computing Protection Paths draft-chen-pce-protection-applicability Huaimo Chen, Huawei

Page 2 Introduction  Discussions initiated by Daniel King on List.  Applications such as Cloud drive increasingly more traffic across longer ranges over LSP crossing domains  It is very important to provide protections for the traffic against failures  PCE is used for computing paths for LSP crossing domains  PCE COULD also be used for computing protection paths for LSP crossing domains

Page 3 Many Application Scenarios  End to end disjoint path P2P disjoint path from an ingress to an egress P2MP disjoint path from an ingress to a number of egresses  Multi-homing end to end disjoint path P2P disjoint path from a backup ingress to a backup egress P2MP disjoint path from a backup ingress to a number of backup egresses  One to one Local Protection Path P2P  Path for link protection  Path for intermediate node protection  Path for ingress and egress protection P2MP  Facility Local Protection Path P2P  Path for protecting a set of LSPs over a link  Path for protecting a set of LSPs through an intermediate node  Path for protecting a set of LSPs via ingress and egress P2MP
