Digital optical monitoring

You can configure your Brocade ICX 6650 device to monitor optical transceivers in the system, either globally or by specified ports. When this feature is enabled, the system will monitor the temperature and signal power levels for the optical transceivers in the specified ports. Console messages and Syslog messages are sent when optical operating conditions fall below or rise above the XFP, SFP, and SFP+ manufacturer recommended thresholds.

Digital optical monitoring configuration limitations

A Brocade ICX 6650 switch can monitor a maximum of 24 SFPs and 12 XFPs.

Enabling digital optical monitoring

To enable optical monitoring on all Brocade ICX 6650-qualified optics installed in the device, use the following command.

Brocade(config)#optical-monitor

To enable optical monitoring on a specific port, use the following command.

Brocade(config)#interface ethernet 1/1/1

Brocade(config-if-e10000-1/1/1)#optical-monitor

To enable optical monitoring on a range of ports, use the following command.

Brocade(config)#interface ethernet 1/1/1 to 1/1/2

Brocade(config-mif-1/1/1-1/1/2)#optical-monitor

Syntax: [no] optical-monitor

Use the no form of the command to disable digital optical monitoring.
