6. Multi-domain or multi-area management

One of the advantages of PCE is its ability to perform inter-domain or inter-area path calculations.

There are several possible architectures for addressing this issue.

6.1 Multi-domain/multi-area PCE

A single PCE can be used to manage several domains or areas. This PCE must therefore have a complete topological view of the domains/areas for which it is responsible.

The topological acquisition mechanisms seen previously can be used to give the PCE a global view.

In figure 18 , the PCE has a BGP-LS session to a device in domain 1, enabling it to retrieve the topology view of this...
