Summary of draft • This draft fits to the following (former?) charter item • Functional specification of extensions for routing (OSPF, ISIS) and signalling (RSVP-TE) required for path establishment. Protocol formats and procedures that embody these extensions will be done jointly with the WGs supervising those protocols. • This draft • states the problem of GMPLS CSPF path computation • Since these constraints vary and are differently understood among such an multiple switching capability and encoding environment, the path computation results are sometimes different. • tries to provide the guideline to consider GMPLS constraint attributes for CSPF path computation at a source node. • TE attributes must be dealt with correctly for creating GMPLS LSPs in the CSPF path computation considering underlying physical and logical technologies of links as well as nodes. 66th IETF Montreal July 2006

Changes in 02/03 version • Multiple matches of an encoding-type were incorporated considering hierarchy. • An encoding-type may have multiple matches on transit TE links Ex.)

Further issues & questions • We would like to cover all possible cases to create a concrete guideline of CSPF path computation in terms of GMPLS attributes. • In -03 version, some cases were found to be missing. • Any feedback would be greatly appreciated. • Is this draft categorized as whether BCP or specification? • Since it is not enough information to categorized as BCP (practice!), it should be treated as specification. 66th IETF Montreal July 2006
