First it wasn't clear from the document if "congestion" was

for PCE case.


This is, in fact, the wrong assumption. The congestion metric refers
to the congestion of the PCE itself.

We will add a clarification of this point to the top of section 4.4 as
follows:

Note that "congestion" as indicated by this object refers to the
processing state of the PCE and its ability to handle new PCEP
requests.

didn't we change the terminology form "congestion" to "overload" in earlier documents, to address this potential for confusion?


Yes you are right, that rings a bell. That said, I think that with the added text, this should be clear now.
Let me know if this is OK with you.

Thanks.

JP.

Lars
