Configuring Temperature Thresholds on a Switch

You can set temperature thresholds by which the switch will generate an alarm or place the switch offline. Note: The Enable Temperature Failure Port Shutdown box must be checked to generate an alarm.

 

To configure temperature thresholds on a switch, do the following:

 

1. Open the faceplate display.

2. Open the Switch menu and select Temperature Thresholds to display the Temperature Thresholds dialog.

3. Click the Enable Temperature Failure Port Shutdown checkbox to shut down the ports when the Warning Temperature Threshold or Failure Temperature Threshold is reached, if desired.

4. Enter temperature values (between 0 and 100 - °C) in the Warning Temperature Threshold and the Failure Temperature Threshold fields.  

5. Click the OK button.
