Temperature Management
The operating temperature of your switch is an important factor in its overall health. In order to avoid a
To avoid chassis
1Be sure that your switch is installed in a
2If your switch chassis is not fully populated with uplink or stacking modules, be sure that blank cover panels are installed at empty slot positions at all times. Blank cover panels help regulate airflow and thus regulate the overall operating temperature in the switch. Refer to page
Viewing Chassis Temperature Status
As with power supply status, the switch constantly monitors the chassis temperature. If a temperature error has occurred, the switch sends out a trap to the user and the TEMP LED on the chassis front panel displays amber.
Note. For detailed LED information, including the TEMP LED, refer to “Status LEDs” on page
To check the current chassis temperature status, use the show temperature command. For example:

Hardware Board Temperature (deg C) | = | 39, |
| |
Hardware Cpu Temperature (deg C) | = | N/A, | ||
Temperature Upper | Threshold Range (deg C) = | 30 | to 77, | |
Temperature Upper | Threshold (deg C) | = | 57, |
|
Temperature Range |
| = | UNDER THRESHOLD, | |
Temperature Danger Threshold (deg C) | = | 77 |
|
In the example above, the switch’s current temperature is 39 degrees Celsius. The switch is operating under the upper temperature threshold, which is 57 degrees Celsius.
