Foundry Networks LS 624 Displaying Management Module CPU Usage, Hardware Maintenance Schedule

Foundry FastIron LS Layer 2 Compact Switch Hardware Installation Guide

To change the shutdown temperature, enter a command such as the following at Privileged EXEC level of the CLI:

FLS648 Switch# temperature shutdown 57

Syntax: temperature shutdown <value>

The <value> can be 0 – 125.

Changing the Temperature Polling Interval

The software reads the temperature sensor and polls other hardware sensors according to the value set for the poll time, which is 60 seconds by default. You can change the poll time using the CLI.

To change the poll time, enter a command such as the following at the global CONFIG level of the CLI:

FLS648 Switch(config)# chassis poll-time 200

Syntax: chassis poll-time <value>

The <value> can be 0 – 65535.

Displaying Management Module CPU Usage

You can display the amount of the management module’s CPU in use. To do so, enter the following command at any level of the CLI:

FLS648 Switch# show cpu

31 percent busy, from 3248 sec ago

1sec avg: 31 percent busy

5sec avg: 31 percent busy

60sec avg: 31 percent busy

300sec avg: 31 percent busy

Syntax: show cpu

Hardware Maintenance Schedule

The FastIron switch requires minimal maintenance for its hardware components. Foundry recommends cleaning the fiber-optic connectors on a fiber-optic port and the connected fiber cable each time you disconnect the cable.

Otherwise, you can replace the following hardware components as needed:

•Copper and fiber optic modules (SFPs (mini-GBICs) and XFP transceivers)

•10-Gigabit Ethernet module

Installing or Replacing a 10-Gigabit Ethernet Module

The 1-port and 10-Gigabit Ethernet modules are optional. You can order the FastIron LS with a 10-Gigabit module installed at the factory, or you can later upgrade your device.

This section provides the steps for installing, removing, and replacing the 10-Gigabit Ethernet module. You will need the following tools to perform these procedures:

•#2 Phillips-head screwdriver

•Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) kit.
