tnPowerSupplyTemperature

Module: TN-POWER-SUPPLY-MIB

OID (symbolic): TN-POWER-SUPPLY-MIB::tnPowerSupplyTemperature

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.868.2.5.20.2.1.1.6

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: INTEGER

Access: read-only

Description: Indicates the temperature of the power-supply.

What is tnPowerSupplyTemperature?

This read-only object reports the current internal temperature of the power supply module identified by tnPowerSupplyIndex in the same row. Admins use it to catch a power supply that is running hot, potentially due to a failing internal fan or overloaded output, before it trips a thermal shutdown. For example, a temperature reading climbing steadily above the device's normal operating range would prompt an admin to check tnPowerSupplyFanRPM for that same module to see if its cooling fan has slowed or failed.

Start monitoring Transition Networks managed switch/media converter with dual/redundant power supplies (PSU presence/fan-RPM/temperature status) with a free 30-day trial of IPNetwork Monitor. Create custom SNMP monitor using the TN-POWER-SUPPLY-MIB::tnPowerSupplyTemperature OID value, configure state conditions and alerts, and monitor any Transition Networks managed switch/media converter with dual/redundant power supplies (PSU presence/fan-RPM/temperature status) from a single console.

How to Use in IPNetwork Monitor

Select a Transition Networks managed switch/media converter with dual/redundant power supplie (PSU presence/fan-RPM/temperature status) as the target host to create a monitor — the SNMP service should be up and running on it. Click New Monitor, then check SNMP Custom on the Favorites tab, click Next, and confirm the host. On the next page, click Select... to open the built-in SNMP MIB Browser and type tnPowerSupplyTemperature into the Find box to locate it in the OID tree, selecting the specific row/instance you want to monitor since this is a table column, then select it and click OK. Indicates the temperature of the power-supply. On the monitor's Main parameters page you can set the target's SNMP port (default 161), credentials, polling interval, and other settings — see the SNMP Monitor help for details. On the State conditions and Alerting tabs, configure when the monitor should change state and trigger an alert; since this is an INTEGER-type OID, Value bounds is the most useful condition here — trigger an alert if the reported value exceeds the level expected for healthy operation, since sustained high temperature often precedes thermal shutdown or hardware degradation. Click Finish to create the monitor; you can adjust any parameter later.
