Chapter Managing the PowerConnect B-Series TI24X 4 In this chapter •Managing temperature settings 33 •Removing MAC address entries 35 Managing temperature settings This section describes how to display temperature settings on the PowerConnect B-Series TI24X and how to change the temperature warning levels. Using the temperature sensor The PowerConnect B-Series TI24X comes with two built-in temperature sensors; one at the air intake, and the other at the exhaust (refer to Figure 25 on page 51). The temperature sensor at the air intake monitors the incoming air temperature. The temperature sensor at the air exhaust monitors 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, which is 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 perform the following: • "Displaying the temperature" • "Changing the temperature warning level" • "Changing the device temperature polling interval" 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 shows an example output.

Managing temperature settings
This section describes how to display temperature settings on the PowerConnect B-Series TI24X
and how to change the temperature warning levels.
Using the temperature sensor
The PowerConnect B-Series TI24X comes with two built-in temperature sensors; one at the air
intake, and the other at the exhaust (refer to
Figure 25
on page 51). The temperature sensor at the
air intake monitors the incoming air temperature. The temperature sensor at the air exhaust
monitors 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, which is 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 perform the following:
•
“Displaying the temperature”
•
“Changing the temperature warning level”
•
“Changing the device temperature polling interval”
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 shows an example output.
PowerConnect#show chassis
Power supply 1 (NA - NA - Regular) present, status ok
Power supply 2 not present
Fan 1 ok, speed (auto): [[1]]<->2<->3
Fan 2 ok, speed (auto): [[1]]<->2<->3
Fan 3 ok, speed (auto): [[1]]<->2<->3
