Abstract
A path computation method is provided. A node device and a path computation element (PCE) are also provided correspondingly. The path computation method includes: sending a path computation request message to the PCE after receiving a client-side service transmission request, the path computation request message carrying identifiers of a source node and a destination node that access a client-side service and carrying a path concatenation constraint; and receiving the path computation response message carrying path information returned by the PCE, the path information being obtained by the PCE through computation according to the identifiers of the source node and the destination node that accesses a client-side service, the concatenation constraint, and concatenation capabilities of each interface of nodes in a network. The technical solution of the present invention is simpler and more convenient, which obviously reduces the complexity of the specific implementation.
