Introduction [RFC5440] describes the Path Computation Element Protocol (PCEP) which is used between a Path Computation Element (PCE) and a Path Computation Client (PCC) (or other PCE) to enable computation of Multi-protocol Label Switching (MPLS) for Traffic Engineering Label Switched Path (TE LSP). PCEP Extensions for the Stateful PCE Model [RFC8231] describes a set of extensions to PCEP to enable active control of MPLS-TE and Generalized MPLS (GMPLS) tunnels. As depicted in [RFC4655], a PCE MUST be able to compute the path of a TE LSP by operating on the TED and considering bandwidth and other constraints applicable to the TE LSP service request. The constraint parameters are provided such as metric, bandwidth, delay, affinity, etc. However these parameters can't meet the DetNet requirements. Xiong, et al. Expires 24 April 2025 [Page 2] Internet-Draft PCEP Extension for Bounded Latency October 2024 According to [RFC8655], Deterministic Networking (DetNet) operates at the IP layer and delivers service which provides extremely low data loss rates and bounded latency within a network domain. The bounded latency indicates the minimum and maximum end-to-end latency from source to destination and bounded jitter (packet delay variation). [I-D.ietf-detnet-scaling-requirements] has described the enhanced requirements for DetNet data plane including the information used by functions ensuring deterministic latency should be supported. [I-D.ietf-detnet-dataplane-taxonomy] has described the classification criteria of the solutions. And queuing mechanisms and solutions require different information to help the functions of ensuring deterministic latency, including regulation, queue management. As per [I-D.xiong-detnet-data-fields-edp], the deterministic latency information should be defined as the DetNet-specific metadata for enhanced DetNet data plane. The computing method of end-to-end delay bounds is defined in [RFC9320]. It is the sum of the 6 delays in DetNet bounded latency model. And these delays should be measured and collected by IGP, but the related mechanisms are out of this document. The end-to-end delay bounds can also be computed as the sum of non queuing delay bound and queuing delay bound along the path. The upper bounds of non queuing delay are constant and depend on the specific network and the value of queuing delay bound depends on the queuing mechanisms deployed along the path. The queuing delay may differ notably in their specific queuing solutions, which should be selected and calculated by the controller (or PCE). The deterministic latency information related to each queuing mechanism should also be distributed. As per [I-D.ietf-detnet-controller-plane-framework], explicit path should be calculated and established in control plane to guarantee the deterministic transmission. The corresponding IS-IS and OSPF extensions are specified in [I-D.peng-lsr-deterministic-traffic-engineering]. When the PCE is deployed, the path computation should be applicable for deterministic networks. It is required that bounded latency including minimum and maximum end-to-end latency and bounded delay variation are considered during the deterministic path selection for PCE. The bounded latency constraints should be extended for PCEP. Moreover, the queuing-based parameters along the deterministic path should be provided to the PCC after the path computation such as deterministic latency information. This document describes the extensions for PCEP to carry bounded latency constraints and distribute deterministic paths for end-to-end path computation in deterministic services. Xiong, et al. Expires 24 April 2025 [Page 3] Internet-Draft PCEP Extension for Bounded Latency October 2024 1.1. Requirements Language The key words "MUST", "MUST NOT", "REQUIRED", "SHALL", "SHALL NOT", "SHOULD", "SHOULD NOT", "RECOMMENDED", "MAY", and "OPTIONAL" in this document are to be interpreted as described in RFC 2119 [RFC2119]. 2. Terminology The terminology is defined as [RFC8655] and [RFC5440]. 3. PCEP Extensions 3.1. METRIC Object The METRIC object is defined in Section 7.8 of [RFC5440], comprising metric-value and metric-type (T field), and a flags field, comprising a number of bit flags (B bit and C bit). This document defines two types for the METRIC object. 3.1.1. End-to-End Bounded Delay Metric [RFC8233] has proposed the Path Delay metric type of the METRIC object to represent the sum of the Link Delay metric of all links along a P2P path. This document proposes the End-to-End Bounded Delay metric in PCEP to represent the sum of Output delay, Link delay, Frame preemption delay, Processing delay, Regulation delay and Queuing delay as defined in [RFC9320] along a deterministic path. Or the End-to-End Bounded Delay metric can be encoded as the sum of non queuing delay bound and queuing delay bound along the deterministic path. The extensions for End-to-End Bounded Delay Metric are as following shown: * T=TBD1: End-to-End Bounded Delay Metric. * The value of End-to-End Bounded Delay Metric is the encoding in units of microseconds with 32 bits. * The B bit MUST be set to suggest a maximum bound for the end-to- end delay of deterministic path. The end-to-end delay must be less than or equal to the value. A PCC MAY use the End-to-End Bounded Latency metric in a Path Computation Request (PCReq) message to request a deterministic path meeting the end-to-end latency requirement. A PCE MAY use the End- to-End Bounded Latency metric in a Path Computation Reply (PCRep) message along with a NO-PATH object in the case where the PCE cannot compute a path meeting this constraint. A PCE can also use this metric to send the computed end-to-end bounded latency to the PCC. Xiong, et al. Expires 24 April 2025 [Page 4] Internet-Draft PCEP Extension for Bounded Latency October 2024 3.1.2. End-to-End Bounded Jitter Metric [RFC8233] has proposed the Path Delay Variation metric type of the METRIC object to represent the sum of the Link Delay Variation metric of all links along the path. This document proposes the End-to-End Bounded Jitter metric in PCEP to represent the difference between the end-to-end upper bounded latency and the end-to-end lower bounded latency along a deterministic path. The extensions for End-to-End Bounded Jitter Metric are as following shown: * T=TBD2: End-to-End Bounded Jitter Metric. * The value of End-to-End Bounded Jitter Metric is the encoding in units of microseconds with 32 bits. * The B bit MUST be set to suggest a maximum bound for the end-to- end jitter of deterministic path. The end-to-end jitter must be less than or equal to the value. A PCC MAY use the End-to-End Bounded Jitter metric in a PCReq message to request a deterministic path meeting the end-to-end delay variation requirement. A PCE MAY use the End-to-End Bounded Jitter metric in a PCRep message along with a NO-PATH object in the case where the PCE cannot compute a path meeting this constraint. A PCE can also use this metric to send the computed end-to-end bounded Jitter to the PCC. 3.2. LSP Object The LSP Object is defined in Section 7.3 of [RFC8231]. This document defines a new flag (D-flag) to present the deterministic path for the LSP-EXTENDED-FLAG TLV carried in LSP Object as defined in [RFC9357]. D (Request for Deterministic Path) : If the bit is set to 1, it indicates that the PCC requests PCE to compute the deterministic path. A PCE would also set this bit to 1 to indicate that the deterministic path is included by PCE and encoded in the PCRep, PCUpd or PCInitiate message. 3.3. Deterministic Path ERO Subobject The ERO specified in [RFC5440] can be used to carry deterministic path information. In order to carry deterministic latency information, this document defines a new ERO subobject referred to as the Deterministic Path ERO subobject (DP-ERO). An ERO carrying a deterministic path consists of one or more ERO subobjects, and it MUST carry DP-ERO subobjects. Xiong, et al. Expires 24 April 2025 [Page 5] Internet-Draft PCEP Extension for Bounded Latency October 2024 An DP-ERO subobject is formatted as shown in the following figure. 0 1 2 3 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ |L| Type=TBD3 | Length | Class | DLI Type | +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ // Deterministic Latency Information(variable, optional) // +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ Figure 1: DP-ERO Subobject Format L (1bit): The L bit is an attribute of the subobject. The L bit is set if the subobject represents a loose hop in the explicit route. If the bit is not set, the subobject represents a strict hop in the explicit route. Type (8bits): Set to TBD3. Length (8bits): Contains the total length of the subobject in octets. The Length MUST be at least 8 and MUST be a multiple of 4. Class (8bits): indicates the deterministic forwarding class. DLI Type (8bits): indicates the type of deterministic latency information. Deterministic Latency Information (variable): indicates the corresponding deterministic latency parameters. The format depends on the value in the DLI type and the following sections shows the examples of the information. 3.3.1. Deadline Information When the DLI Type is deadline-based queuing mechanisms, it should carry deadline information for the DP-ERO subobject. For example, the deadline-based queuing mechanism has been proposed in [I-D.stein-srtsn] and [I-D.peng-detnet-deadline-based-forwarding]. The format of the deadline information is shown as following figure. Xiong, et al.

Cycle Information When the DLI Type is cyclic-based queuing mechanisms, it should carry cycle information for the DP-ERO subobject. For example, the cyclic- based queuing mechanism has been proposed in [IEEE 802.1Qdv], [I-D.dang-queuing-with-multiple-cyclic-buffers], [I-D.eckert-detnet-tcqf] and [I-D.chen-detnet-sr-based-bounded-latency]. The format of the cycle information is shown as following figure. 0 1 2 3 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ | Cycle Profile ID | +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ | Cycle ID | +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ Figure 3: Cycle Information Cycle Profile ID (32bits): indicates the profile number which the cyclic queue applied at a node. Cycle ID (32bits): indicates the clycle number for a node to forward a flow. 3.3.3. Timeslot Information When the DLI Type is timeslot-based queuing mechanisms, it should carry timeslot information for the DP-ERO subobject. For example, the timeslot-based queuing mechanism has been proposed in [I-D.peng-detnet-packet-timeslot-mechanism]. The format of the timeslot information is shown as following figure. Xiong, et al. Expires 24 April 2025 [Page 7] Internet-Draft PCEP Extension for Bounded Latency October 2024 0 1 2 3 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ | Timeslot ID | +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ Figure 4: Timeslot Information Timeslot ID (32bits): indicates the timeslot number for a node to forward a flow. 3.3.4. Ratio Information When the DLI Type is rate-based queuing mechanisms, it should carry ratio information for the DP-ERO subobject. For example, the rate- based queuing mechanism has been proposed in [I-D.joung-detnet-stateless-fair-queuing], [IEEE802.1Qcr] and [I-D.eckert-detnet-glbf]. The format of the ratio information is shown as following figure. +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ | Maximum packet size | +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ | Service rate | +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ Figure 5: Ratio Information Maximum packet size (32bits): indicates the maximum packet size which the node should forward. Service rate (32bits): indicates the service rate which the node should forward. 3.3.5. Damper Information When the DLI Type is damper-based queuing mechanisms, it should carry damper information in the DP-ERO subobject. For example, the damper- based queuing mechanism has been proposed in [I-D.mohammadpour-detnet-bounded-delay-variation] and [I-D.eckert-detnet-glbf]. The format of the damper information is shown as following figure. Xiong, et al. Expires 24 April 2025 [Page 8] Internet-Draft PCEP Extension for Bounded Latency October 2024 +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ | Budget delay | +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ Figure 6: Damper Information Budget delay (32bits): indicates the budget delay which the PCE calculated for this deterministic path. 4. Operations The PCE needs to collect the value of the delays and related parameters by IGP, calculate the bounded latency, select a deterministic path with a specific queuing mechanism which meet the requirements and configure the related parameters to the PCC. And as discussed in [I-D.ietf-detnet-dataplane-taxonomy], the end-to-end bounded latency calculation includes the bounded delay and jitter. The calculation of end-to-end bounded delay and jitter will differ in each queuing solution. For example, the end-to-end jitter is 2 times of the cycle ID when selecting cyclic-based queuing mechanism. A PCC can request the computation of deterministic path and a PCE may respond with PCRep message. And the deterministic path can also be initiated by PCE with PCInitiate or PCUpd message in stateful PCE mode. When the D bit in LSP object is set to 1 within the message, it indicates to request the calculation of deterministic path. When the bit is set in Metric object to indicate the End-to-End Bounded Delay Metric, the PCE should calculate the end-to-end delay to select the optimal deterministic path to meet the requirements. And when the bit is set in Metric object to indicate the End-to-End Bounded Jitter Metric, the PCE should calculate the end-to-end jitter. The path being received by PCC encoded in DP-ERO, which carry the deterministic latency information. And the PCC may insert the deterministic latency information as the DetNet-specific metadata into the packet headers to achieve the deterministic forwarding. 5. Security Considerations Security considerations for DetNet are covered in the DetNet architecture [RFC8655], DetNet security considerations [RFC9055] and DetNet control plane [I-D.ietf-detnet-controller-plane-framework]. This document defines a new D bit and DP-ERO subobject for deterministic path in PCEP, which do not introduce any new security considerations beyond those already listed in [RFC5440],[RFC8231] and [RFC9357].
