Description: Defines managed objects for accounting data collection and export on Juniper Networks E-series routers, including session and traffic records.

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-ACCOUNTING-MIB?

Juniper-ACCOUNTING-MIB is a Juniper Networks enterprise MIB that defines managed objects for configuring and monitoring usage accounting data collection and export on Juniper E-series routers. It exposes categories of data covering per-interface accounting selection criteria, accounting record/file format, and policy-based accounting assignment, and it explicitly augments the Virtual Router Accounting MIB. It is mainly used to monitor the software-level status of the accounting subsystem: whether accounting is enabled for a given interface or subtree, what selection policy and mode apply, and whether interface create/delete events are being tracked for statistics purposes. It has a notable dependency on the Juniper Virtual Router Accounting MIB, which it augments rather than replaces. It is deployed on E-series edge routers used for subscriber or traffic-based billing and usage reporting, and network engineers can download the Juniper-ACCOUNTING-MIB file to load it into their MIB browser for reference.

IPNetwork Monitor allows you to monitor SNMP objects defined in Juniper-ACCOUNTING-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 E-series routers

Monitoring Examples

An operator inspects rows of juniAcctngSelectionTable/juniAcctngSelectionEntry to confirm the juniAcctngSelectionType, juniAcctngSelectionMode, and juniAcctngSelectionPolicyName applied to a given interface subtree, verifying accounting is actually active where expected. juniAcctngFileFormat is checked to confirm exported accounting records are being generated in the expected format, and juniAcctngSelectionIfCreateDeleteStats reveals whether interface churn (creation/deletion) is being counted as part of the accounting policy.

What Can Be Monitored

  • accounting selection status per interface
  • accounting record/file format
  • accounting policy assignment
  • interface create/delete statistics
  • interface numbering mode
