Hardware Monitoring
Automatic Monitoring
Automatic monitoring refers to the switch’s built-in sensors that automatically monitor operations. If an 
error is detected (e.g., over-threshold temperature), the switch immediately sends a trap to the user. The 
trap is displayed on the console in the form of a text error message. (In the case of an over-threshold 
temperature condition, the chassis displays an amber TEMP LED in addition to sending a trap.)
LEDs
LEDs, which provide visual status information, are provided on the chassis front panel. LEDs are used to 
indicate conditions such as hardware and software status, temperature errors, link integrity, data flow, etc. 
For detailed LED descriptions, refer to 
User-Driven Monitoring
User-driven hardware monitoring refers to CLI commands that are entered by the user in order to access 
the current status of hardware components. The user enters “show” commands that output information to 
the console. Monitoring information for chassis components such as the optional back up power supply, 
chassis temperature sensor, and chassis fans is provided in 
 Show commands for all features are described in detail in the OmniSwitch 
CLI Reference Guide.
