Mapping a Path Computation Client PCEP IP Address
A Path Computation Client (PCC) supports the configurations related to the Path Computation Element (PCE) and communicates with the NorthStar Controller, which by default is configured to accept a PCEP connection from any source address. Use the Device Profile window in the NorthStar Controller web UI to map a PCEP IP address for a PCC device.
A PCEP IP address (the local address of the PCC) is required when both of the following are true:
PCEP is established through an IP address that is not supplied in the TED, such as an out-of-band IP address that uses an fxp0 management interface.
There is no PCC-owned or PCC-delegated LSP configured on the router.
Before you begin, you must perform the configuration steps described in Configuring PCEP on a PE Router (from the CLI) to configure the PE router as a PCC and establish a connection between the PCC and the NorthStar Controller.
To map a PCEP IP address for a PCC to the NorthStar Controller:
