Summary of Objectives and Solution
Multi-domain diverse path establishment
E.g. for end-to-end protection
Desire to preserve confidentiality of each domain’s topology information
Implies computation performed per domain
Downstream PCE cannot return full path info
Encode Confidential Path Segment as a Path Key
Placed in computation response
Signaled in Path message
Enquiry sent to PCE when Path Key found in ERO
Option for PCE to push Path Key translation to LSRs
