Description: Juniper Networks MIB for monitoring power supply unit (PSU) status, redundancy, and fault conditions on Juniper chassis.

Start monitoring vendor-neutral, standards-based MIB, any SNMPv3-capable network device (SNMP engine identity/boot/clock status) with a free 30-day trial of IPNetwork Monitor. Import MIBs, browse SNMP OIDs, create custom SNMP monitors, configure alerts, and monitor any SNMP-enabled network device from a single console.

What Is JUNIPER-POWER-SUPPLY-UNIT-MIB?

JUNIPER-POWER-SUPPLY-UNIT-MIB is Juniper's MIB for monitoring power supply unit (PSU) status, redundancy, and fault conditions on Juniper chassis-based platforms. It exposes power capacity/consumption data (available, allocated, reserved, consumed power), redundancy configuration, and temperature readings for the power subsystem. This is explicitly a hardware health monitoring MIB—it tracks power-supply redundancy state, total versus consumed power (to catch over-subscription), and PSU inflow/outflow temperature (to catch overheating), all classic power/environmental hardware-health indicators, with a notifications object providing trap-based alerting on these conditions. It is a Juniper enterprise-specific MIB (jnx tree), typically used alongside the broader Juniper chassis/environment MIB for complete hardware-health monitoring. It is typically deployed on Juniper chassis-based routers/switches, including the ACX710, whose JUNIPER-POWER-SUPPLY-UNIT-MIB support exposes this power and redundancy data, in data centers or carrier environments where PSU redundancy and power budget must be tracked to avoid overload or single-PSU-failure risk.

IPNetwork Monitor allows you to monitor SNMP objects defined in JUNIPER-POWER-SUPPLY-UNIT-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.

Supported Devices

  • Juniper Networks chassis-based routers/switches

Monitoring Examples

An admin would poll jnxPsuRedundancy and jnxPsuRedundantPowerAvailable to confirm the chassis still has a functioning redundant power supply, and compare jnxPsuChassisPowerConsumed against jnxPsuTotalPowerAvailable/jnxPsuChassisPowerAllocated to detect the chassis approaching its power budget as new line cards are added. jnxPsuTemperatureInflow and jnxPsuTemperatureOutflow (sampled via jnxPsuTemperatureInflowSamples) would be watched for a rising delta indicating a failing PSU fan or blocked airflow, with jnxPsuNotifications firing a trap if a PSU fault or redundancy loss occurs.

What Can Be Monitored

  • PSU redundancy status
  • total/available/consumed power
  • power allocation/reservation
  • PSU inflow/outflow temperature
  • PSU fault notifications

How to Use in IPNetwork Monitor

Example using jnxPsuAvailableDeviceCount OID:

Select a Juniper Networks chassis-based router/switch (power supply unit health) as the target host to create a monitor — the SNMP service should be up and running on it. Click New Monitor, then check SNMP Custom on the Favorites tab, click Next, and confirm the host. On the next page, click Select... to open the built-in SNMP MIB Browser and type jnxPsuAvailableDeviceCount into the Find box to locate it in the OID tree, then select it and click OK. Gives the number of PSU units available online in the System. On the monitor's Main parameters page you can set the target's SNMP port (default 161), credentials, polling interval, and other settings — see the SNMP Monitor help for details. On the State conditions and Alerting tabs, configure when the monitor should change state and trigger an alert; since this is an INTEGER-type OID, Value bounds is the most useful condition here — trigger an alert if the count changes from its expected baseline, since that would indicate the underlying set of items changed unexpectedly. Click Finish to create the monitor; you can adjust any parameter later.
