Abstract:
A path computation method and a related device are disclosed. The method includes: a second network device receives path requirement information and a recomputation condition that are sent by a first network device; the second network device first obtains by means of computation a path meeting a requirement according to the path requirement information, and sends description information of the path meeting the requirement to the first network device; then the second network device constantly determines whether the recomputation condition is met; and when the recomputation condition is met, the second network device performs path recomputation, and sends description information of a path obtained by means of recomputation to the first network device. Therefore sensitivity for triggering path recomputation can be improved and a quantity of communication messages between network devices can be reduced.

Claim (Index 9):
The method according to  claim 1 , wherein, the method further comprises:\n receiving, by the second network device, a progress request message sent by the first network device, wherein the progress request message comprises a progress request field, and the progress request field is used to request the second network device to report computation progress to the first network device, wherein the computation progress is progress of performing path computation; and reporting, by the second network device, a progress value to the first network device, wherein the progress value is used to indicate the computation progress.
