Description: Juniper Networks MIB for handling RADIUS-initiated change-of-authorization and disconnect requests from RADIUS servers.
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-RADIUS-Initiated-Request-MIB?
Juniper-RADIUS-Initiated-Request-MIB is a Juniper Networks enterprise MIB covering RADIUS server-initiated requests, such as Change-of-Authorization and Disconnect messages, on JUNOSe E-series routers. It exposes counters for disconnect requests, accepts, and rejects, plus error conditions like invalid client addresses, unknown request types, missing shared secrets, and bad authenticators, alongside a table of RADIUS clients authorized to send such requests. Its main monitoring value is as a software/protocol health indicator: rising reject, no-secret, or bad-authenticator counts flag AAA misconfiguration or an unauthorized/misconfigured RADIUS server attempting to control subscriber sessions, rather than any hardware condition. It complements standard RADIUS Authentication/Accounting MIBs (RFC 2618/2620) and the router's broader AAA subsystem. It is typically deployed on broadband/edge access routers where a centralized RADIUS server dynamically disconnects or re-authorizes subscriber sessions. Engineers can download the Juniper-RADIUS-Initiated-Request-MIB file directly to load it into their MIB browser.
IPNetwork Monitor allows you to monitor SNMP objects defined in Juniper-RADIUS-Initiated-Request-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 router (JUNOSe broadband/edge access platform)
Monitoring Examples
An admin watching juniRadiusInitiatedRequestDisconnectRequests alongside juniRadiusInitiatedRequestDisconnectRejects can spot a spike in rejected disconnects, then check juniRadiusInitiatedRequestClientTable (keyed by juniRadiusInitiatedRequestClientAddress and juniRadiusInitiatedRequestClientPortNumber) to confirm which servers are authorized to issue them. A nonzero juniRadiusInitiatedRequestNoSecret or juniRadiusInitiatedRequestInvalidClientAddresses counter points to a shared-secret mismatch or an unauthorized server attempting session control.
What Can Be Monitored
- disconnect request/accept/reject counts
- invalid client address attempts
- missing shared-secret events
- bad authenticator events
- unknown request type counts
- authorized RADIUS client list
