Carrying SR-Algorithm in Path Computation Element Communication Protocol (PCEP)
This document specifies extensions to the Path Computation Element Communication Protocol (PCEP) to enhance support for Segment Routing (SR) with a focus on the use of Segment Identifiers (SIDs) and SR-Algorithms in Traffic Engineering (TE). The SR-Algorithm associated with a SID defines the path computation algorithm used by Interior Gateway Protocols (IGPs). It introduces mechanisms for PCEP peers to signal the SR-Algorithm associated with SIDs by encoding this information in Explicit Route Object (ERO) and Record Route Object (RRO) subobjects, enables SR-Algorithm constraints for path computation, and defines new metric types for the METRIC object. This document updates RFC 8664 and RFC 9603 to allow such extensions.
