This document updates the registration procedure within the IANA
"Path Computation Element Protocol (PCEP) Numbers" group of
registries. This specification changes some of the registries with
Standards Action to IETF Review as defined in RFC 8126. This memo
updates RFCs 8231, 8233, 8281, 8623, 8664, 8685, 8697, 8733, 8745,
8779, 8780, 8800, 8934, 9050, 9059, 9168, 9357, 9504, 9603, and 9604
for the same.
Designating "experimental use" sub-ranges within code point
registries is often beneficial for protocol experimentation in
controlled environments. Although the registries for PCEP messages,
objects, and TLV types have sub-ranges assigned for Experimental Use,
the registry for PCEP Error-Types and Error-values currently does
not. This document updates RFC 5440 by designating a specific range
of PCEP Error-Types for Experimental Use.
