SFP monitoring

The SFP parameters that can be monitored are listed and described below.

SFP parameter descriptions

TABLE 40

SFP parameter

Description

Suggested SFP impact

Temperature

Measures the temperature of the SFP, in
degrees Celsius.

High temperature suggests the SFP might be
damaged.

Receive power (RXP) Measures the amount of incoming laser,

in µWatts.

Describes the condition of the SFP. If this
parameter exceeds the threshold, the SFP is
deteriorating.

Transmit power (TXP) Measures the amount of outgoing laser

power, in µWatts.

Describes the condition of the SFP. If this
parameter exceeds the threshold, the SFP is
deteriorating.

Current

Measures the amount of current
supplied to the SFP transceiver.

Indicates hardware failures.

Voltage

Measures the amount of voltage
supplied to the SFP.

A value higher than the threshold indicates the
SFP is deteriorating.

SFP thresholds

You can customize SFP thresholds or actions by using the threshold-monitor sfp command, which
enables you to perform the following tasks.

• Customize SFP configurations or accept SFP defaults.
• Manage the actions and thresholds for the Current, Voltage, RXP, TXP, and Temperature areas of

the SFP.

• Suspend SFP monitoring.

If you do not provide the SFP type parameters, the default thresholds and actions are used. SFP
types, monitoring areas, and default threshold values for the 16-Gbps and QSFP SFPs are detailed
below.
