I've recently just updated to the latest release 21.3R1.9 one of our SRX firewall and unfortunately, our monitor tool stopped to show the interface descriptions anymore. I confirmed it running the following CLI from the SRX firewall itself : ">show snmp mib walk ifAlias", and it was true... no interface descriptions were returned while the other SRX firewall, which it has not been updated yet to the latest version, does it.
Reading what's new in the latest release, I read that juniper has modified the mib file of ifAlias snmp object to stop of returning the interface description when queried. But I haven't find any workaround on this.
I wonder if someone can help.. Maybe there is a new object-id to pickup the information, but juniper does not specify how.
