Signaling extension
A new RSVP ERROR code : Saturation
Several error sub-codes, indicating the reasons for the saturation (memory shortage, max LSP number reached…)

On receipt of a Path message for a new LSP, a saturated LSR should reject the LSP, and send back a PathErr, with the Saturation Error code

Such notification will allow head-end LSR taking appropriate action
E.g. recompute a path avoiding the saturated node
