Configuring the temperature sensor

If your FortiSwitch unit has a temperature sensor, you can set a warning and an alarm for when the system temperature reaches specified temperatures. When these thresholds are exceeded, a log message and SNMP trap are generated. The warning threshold must be lower than the alarm threshold.

Use the following commands to set warning and alarm thresholds:

config system snmp sysinfo

set status enable

set trap-temp-warning-threshold <temperature in degrees Celsius>

set trap-temp-alarm-threshold <temperature in degrees Celsius>

end

By default, the FortiSwitch unit generates an alert (in the form of an SNMP trap and a SYSLOG entry) every 30 minutes when the temperature sensor exceeds its set threshold. You can change this interval with the following commands:

config system global

set alertd-relog enable

set alert-interval <1-1440 minutes>

end
