Setting the Temperature System
You can set the upper and lower temperature warning systems for
your switch’s backplane and slot 1. These warning systems cause the
following to happen if the temperatures you set are reached:
■ The Supervisor modules shut down the switching modules if
the temperature reaches the Shutdown temperature.
■ The modules are restarted if the temperature goes below the
Upper Warning Temperature.
The default Shutdown temperatures are conservative for the slot 1
sensor (50° C and backplane sensor 50° C). They can be safely set to
60° C, but settings higher than 60° C are not recommended. You can
set the shutdown temperature to a value lower than 50° C to ensure
prompt notification if a fan fails.
You can set the temperature system using either the Web Agent or
the CLI.
Web Agent
Procedure
To configure the temperature warning systems using the Web
Agent:
1. Select Temperature System from the System >
Configuration group on the Web Agent window. The
Temperature System dialog box opens with the current
temperature settings (Figure 3-7).
