Managing temperature settings

The device contains temperature sensors that the software reads based on a configurable device
poll time. Except for the ICX 6430-24 model, the device has two automatic speed fan control
settings based on the temperature. To protect the device from overheating, the following
temperature threshold levels exist:

Displaying the temperature

To display the temperature of a device, enter the show chassis command at any level of the CLI.
The show chassis command displays the power supply status, and temperature threshold levels for
fan speed.

The warning level is the temperature at which the device generates a syslog message. It is
configurable up to .
83°C
The shutdown level is the temperature at which the device reboots. It is set by the device and is
not configurable. When the device temperature reaches the shutdown level, it generates a
warning message that the device's temperature is over the shutdown level and the device will
shutdown in five minutes. The system restarts five minutes after the device reaches the
temperature shutdown level.
