Environment monitoring setting guidelines
Use Environment Class default settings. Temperature settings are switch-dependent and there is
no need to alter them. The default alarm configuration, sending alerts to the error log and SNMP, is
sufficient.
Environment class default settings
Table 23 provides default Environment class settings for all switches. Check the appropriate
hardware reference manual for differences in actual environmental requirements.
NOTE
Fabric Watch no longer supports fan monitoring. Event Manager (EM) now manages fan monitoring
and the switch status is calculated based on the fan status reported by EM.
