Labels downloaded to forwarding entries requires a reliable synchronization mechanism between the path computation clients (PCCs) and the PCECC. This draft specify the label database synchronization mechanism for managing of label database (LABEL-DB) at node (PCC) aligning with LABEL-DB at PCECC on initial session UP or session flap and specifies the required Path Computation Element Communication Protocol (PCEP) extensions.}, }
