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
