Path Computation Element Communication Protocol (PCEP)
Management Information Base (MIB) Module
Abstract
This memo defines a portion of the Management Information Base (MIB)
for use with network management protocols in the Internet community.
In particular, it describes managed objects for modeling of the Path
Computation Element Communication Protocol (PCEP) for communications
between a Path Computation Client (PCC) and a Path Computation
Element (PCE), or between two PCEs.

RFC 7420 PCEP MIB December 2014
1. Introduction
The PCE defined in [RFC4655] is an entity that is capable of
computing a network path or route based on a network graph and
applying computational constraints. A PCC may make requests to a PCE
for paths to be computed.
PCEP is the communication protocol between a PCC and PCE and is
