Cisco Temperature Monitor

Question

Hi,
I am using Cisco 3750,3560,2960 and 1800 Series routers in my network. I want to see temperature graph of said equipment on NMS (OP Manager).
Kindly let me know that these devices support such snmp traps ? and how i see these devices temperature information on NMS.
Regards,
Arshad Ahmed

Answer 1

Please refer to, for example, the entries listed at the bottom of this post taken from the envmon MIB (full MIB at link I posted earlier).
I also confirmed a 3560, for example, will reporte its temperature via SNMP. The attached screenshot shows CiscoWorks LMS reporting a 3560G-24TS temperature graph (function similar to what you want to do with 3rd party NMS):
If you want to query directly from cli, that can be done as well. For instance:
C:\Program Files (x86)\CSCOpx\objects\jt\bin>snmpwalk -c [community_string] -O s -v 2c [device_adress] 1.3.6.1.4.1.9.9.13.1.3.1.3
iso.3.6.1.4.1.9.9.13.1.3.1.3.1005 = Gauge32: 40
Tells me the Cisco 3560 device queried in the screenshot above has a temperature of 40 degrees C.
I got the OID values to translate the entries below into numeric form used in the CLI query above from this table.
