# Juniper Network Performance Monitoring & Management Software - ManageEngine OpManager

## Juniper Network Monitoring

Juniper is an MNC that designs and markets networking products including routers, switches, network security products, and software-defined networking technology. Juniper holds almost one-third of the market for high-end core routers and presented stiff competition to Cisco Systems. With a wide array of devices from routers to datacenters, Juniper devices are widely used by business organizations, SMEs, and enterprises to handle IT management needs. Juniper performance monitoring is the process of continously tracking and analyzing critical metrics such as performance, CPU, memory utilization, and overall device health of Juniper networking devices that includes Juniper routers, switches, and firewall.

OpManager provides robust support for Juniper network performance monitoring through a suite of features designed specifically for monitoring and managing Juniper devices. This makes it easier to view and control all Juniper devices in your network from a single console. With OpManager, you can also perform proactive **Juniper network monitoring** by analyzing bottlenecks and automating troubleshooting in Junos OS devices across your enterprise network.

## Real-Time Juniper Performance Monitoring

Maintaining uptime of Juniper devices in the network and identifying problems proactively is the key to efficient network management. With OpManager's pre-defined Juniper device templates, you can start Juniper device monitoring out-of-the-box. This helps you configure the data collection, thresholds, and fault notification right away and also the option to apply the template to Juniper devices in bulk. You can set up your Juniper network and monitor it in a matter of minutes using OpManager.

## Fault management for Juniper devices

OpManager improves **Juniper monitoring** by automatically discovering Juniper switches and routers in your network which can be configured to be placed on a special custom Juniper switch map. All related switch ports are also automatically discovered and you can view the ports which are blocked and the ones currently forwarding at a glance using OpManager's Spanning Tree Protocol. Further, with the help of Juniper network monitoring software like OpManager you can monitor and troubleshoot the Juniper switches for traffic, utIlization, errors, and also for SLA verification. OpManager helps you configure meaningful thresholds and identify the highly utilized and underutilized ports in your Juniper network. The alerts are sent over SMS or an email and can also be viewed through the Android or iPhone app.
