Configuring the Cajun P550 Switch (Layer 2 & Layer 3)

Note: 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.

To display the switch’s cooling system status:

1.In the System Information section of the Web Agent window, click Cooling System. The Cooling System dialog box opens.

2.Ensure that all the individual components are operational by checking the status column for each component.

3.If a component’s status is non-operational, power down the switch and contact a service representative to diagnose the failing unit.
