Why BRPC needs inter-AS links?
Typical computation scenario for BRPC
The traversed domains are assumed to be selected before path computation: AS1->AS2->AS3

PCE3
PCE3 and PCE2 need to select entry boundary nodes based on their upstream AS number respectively.
PCE2 and PCE1 need to select exit boundary nodes that provide connections to their downstream AS respectively.
