    abstract =  {The Path Computation Element Communication Protocol (PCEP) provides mechanisms for Path Computation Elements (PCEs) to instantiate and manage Label Switched Paths (LSPs) on a Path Computation Client (PCC). This includes the ability for a PCE to specify a Binding Segment Identifier (SID) for an LSP. A binding value specified by a PCE may not be available for use on the PCC. This can lead to LSP instantiation failures or entire PCEP message being rejected. This document proposes extensions to PCEP to allow a PCC to fall back to allocating a Binding SID from its own dynamic range if the value specified by the PCE is unavailable. It also defines a mechanism for the PCC to report both the requested and the allocated binding values back to the PCE.},
