Juniper switch/firewall alert not working for VC ports /Cluster failure

You have to enable snmp statistics for vcp ports of other members:

set virtual-chassis vcp-snmp-statistics

It's a hidden setting (does not show up with tab-completion), might be useful to add this to documentation for Juniper Virtual Chassis...

Hi Adam,

Sorry for the inconvenience. Kindly check and let me know if any details required.

This is regarding this request 

OBS-3928 - Juniper switch/firewall alert not working for VC ports /Cluster failure

It's not clear what this ticket is about.

Please do not assume that we know anything at all about your devices.

Hi Team,

Please update the status.

Could you please clarify as what is possible and not possible.

Our requirement is to expose the Virtual chassis ports and nodes for monitoring and alerting if in case of any failure.

Awaiting your update.

Hi Mike,

Any update regarding the Juniper SRX firewall Virtual chassis node failure alert?

Regarding the  OBS-2049 Support for Juniper Virtual Chassis Ports - I've upgraded the version to the latest 21.11.11755 (18th November 2021) but not all VCP ports are exposed yet. In addition, some devices the "JUNIPER-VIRTUALCHASSIS-MIB" haven't polled at all.

Can you please check and update the status?

Hi Mike,

Can you check on the node failure alert within the virtual chassis?

How about the node failure (Physical Switch) within the virtual chassis?

I can see observium is monitoring those nodes but the alerts are not triggered.

Refer the screenshot

Hi Mike,

Alert should be triggered for both Virtual Chassis-Ports as well as node failure within the virtual chassis. Above switch has three nodes in the VC.

I'll share the details of Juniper SRX firewall SNMP dump to check on the chassis cluster node failure.

I think you need write JTAC to vendor about this.

As I see in your snmp dump, only this ports listed here:

IF-MIB::ifDescr.101 = STRING: vcp-255/1/0

IF-MIB::ifDescr.102 = STRING: vcp-255/1/0.32768

IF-MIB::ifDescr.103 = STRING: vcp-255/1/1

IF-MIB::ifDescr.104 = STRING: vcp-255/1/1.32768

IF-MIB::ifType.101 = INTEGER: other(1)

IF-MIB::ifType.102 = INTEGER: propVirtual(53)

IF-MIB::ifType.103 = INTEGER: other(1)

IF-MIB::ifType.104 = INTEGER: propVirtual(53)

IF-MIB::ifOperStatus.101 = INTEGER: up(1)

IF-MIB::ifOperStatus.102 = INTEGER: up(1)

IF-MIB::ifOperStatus.103 = INTEGER: up(1)

IF-MIB::ifOperStatus.104 = INTEGER: up(1)

observium can monitor only what device report..
