INTER-DOMAIN SIGNALING TO PROVIDE UPDATED ROUTING INFORMATION TO PATH COMPUTATION ELEMENTS AFTER A TUNNEL ESTABLISHMENT FAILURE

摘要

In one embodiment, a router in a non-originating domain receives a signal to establish a tunnel, the signal having an identification (ID) of an originating path computation element (PCE) of an originating domain from where the signal to establish the tunnel originated. In response to determining that establishment of the tunnel fails, the router may signal the failure of the establishment to a local PCE of the non-originating domain, the signaling indicating the ID of the originating PCE to cause the local PCE to provide updated routing information of the non-originating domain to the originating PCE.
