Temperature Operating Range

On Summit family switches, if a switch runs outside the expected range, the switch logs an error message, generates a trap, and one of the following actions occurs:
  • On a SummitStack slots, the reset/none option from configure sys-recovery-level [all | none] command determines the action that occurs.
  • On Summit X430-8p switches, the device is shut down regardless of the recovery level, and after reboot you are prompted whether or not to boot the switch.
  • For all switches, other than the X430-8p, only a warning is logged and the switch continues to run with the system state as "overheat." If the temperature increases further into overheat condition, after the operating temperature exceed a further higher temperature, the hardware resets the switch.
