1. Stateful PCE Extensions for Data Plane Switchover and Balancing draft-tanaka-pce-stateful-pce-data-ctrl-00 July, 2013 Yosuke Tanaka, Yuji Kamite NTT Communications, Corp. Ina Minei Juniper Networks, Inc. 1IETF87 Berlin

2. Introduction Motivation – Switchover traffic from one MPLS-TE Tunnel to another For example from existing LSP to PCE-initiated LSP – Load-balance traffic across several MPLS-TE Tunnels -> This I-D proposes a simple solution using PCEP messages with some extensions for data traffic switchover/load-balancing. 2IETF87 Berlin

3. Solution overview Use the PCUpd message to request the LSP to switch over traffic from a source to a destination LSP. – The src and dest can be specified as a set Traffic is load balanced proportional to the bandwidth of the members of the set The percentages are reported back in the PCRpt message.

PCUpd ASSOC-G : Association Group 1 2. Path (Tunnel-id T2) 3. PCUpd ASSOC-G : Association Group 2 4. PCUpd D-CTRL : origin Association Group 1 target Association Group 2 Resv 4’. PCRpt (with result of execution) 1. Initiates Association Group 2. Establishes a new PCE-Initiated LSP 3. Creates a new Association Group 4. Executes traffic switchover from Assoc-G 1 to Assoc-G 2

PCUpd D-CTRL : origin Association Group 1 target Association Group 3 Resv 4’. PCRpt (with result of execution, actual percentages) 1. Initiates Association Group 2. Establishes new PCE-Initiated LSPs 3. Creates a new Association Group 4. Executes traffic balancing from Assoc-G 1 to Assoc-G 3 3’. PCUpd PLSP-ID 3 ASSOC-G : Association Group 3 2G2G 2G2G 1G
