What Is BENU-PLATFORM-MIB?
BENU-PLATFORM-MIB is a Benu Networks enterprise MIB for their virtualized/broadband gateway platforms, covering hardware platform inventory along with fan and power supply status. As a platform-level module it is squarely aimed at hardware health monitoring: it is designed to expose whether cooling fans and power supplies in the chassis are operating normally, alongside general inventory data identifying installed hardware modules. Because no sample objects were available in this batch, exact object names cannot be cited, but the described scope implies typical environmental sensor and inventory tables (fan status, PSU status, board/module inventory) analogous to other vendor platform MIBs, and any BENU-PLATFORM-MIB implementation guide from Benu would be the authoritative source for those exact identifiers. It likely depends on the Benu enterprise SMI root and possibly entity-MIB-like conventions for physical inventory representation. It is deployed on Benu Networks broadband gateway (e.g., BNG/CMTS virtualization) platforms where operators need SNMP visibility into chassis hardware health.
IPNetwork Monitor allows you to monitor SNMP objects defined in BENU-PLATFORM-MIB. Use the built-in SNMP Monitoring Browser to explore available variables, view their current values and descriptions, and select the objects you want to monitor. You can then create SNMP monitors, configure thresholds, and receive alerts when monitored values change.
What Can Be Monitored
- fan status
- power supply status
- hardware platform inventory
Supported Devices
- Benu Networks broadband gateway platform
Monitoring Examples
No sample objects were provided for this module, so specific object or table names cannot be cited with confidence; based on the module's stated scope, monitoring would involve fan status and power supply status tables analogous to typical platform MIBs, plus a hardware inventory table for installed modules. Without concrete object names in hand, a precise polling scenario cannot be constructed honestly.

FAQ
What would BENU-PLATFORM-MIB be used to monitor on a Benu Networks broadband gateway?
As a platform-level module it's aimed at hardware health monitoring -- fan status and power supply status in the chassis, along with general hardware inventory identifying installed modules -- giving operators SNMP visibility into chassis environmental health.
Why can't the exact object names in BENU-PLATFORM-MIB be cited with certainty here?
No sample objects were available for this module, so while the described scope implies typical fan/PSU/inventory tables similar to other vendor platform MIBs, the authoritative object names should be confirmed against Benu's own implementation guide before building monitoring against it.
