Managing temperature settings
This chapter contains information about refining the configuration of, monitoring, and managing
hardware components.
This section describes how to display temperature settings on the FGS or FGS-STK device, and how
to change the temperature warning levels.
Using the temperature sensor
FGS and FGS-STK devices come with two built-in temperature sensors; one at the air intake to
monitor the incoming air temperature, and the other at the exhaust, to measure the air
temperature as it exits the device. The temperature sensors cause the device to generate a Syslog
message and SNMP trap if the temperature exceeds a specified warning level
The software reads the temperature sensors according to the device poll time, (60 seconds by
default). If the temperature equals or exceeds the warning temperature the software generates a
Syslog message and SNMP trap.
You can use the CLI to do the following:
•
Display the temperature of the device
•
Change the warning temperature levels
•
Change the device poll time
Displaying the temperature
By default, the software polls the temperature sensor every 60 seconds to get the current
temperature. This poll rate is controlled by the device poll time, which also controls how often the
software polls other system components.
To display the temperature of a device, enter the show chassis command at any level of the CLI.
The following output is from from a standalone FGS device:
