Monitor temperature on FortiSwitch with Fortilink

[Skytech1]

Hi community,

Is there a way to monitor Fortiswitches temperature connected by fortilink to a FortiGate? 

I have found the following post, but it's a snmp trap or syslog with no fortilink

https://docs.fortinet.com/document/fortiswitch/7.2.7/administration-guide/296916/configuring-the-tem...

Is there a way to do this but with fortilink? My main idea would be to create a stitch to execute an action if temperature is higher than the threshold but can't find any stitch related to fortiswitches temperature or an snmp oid to fortiswitches to query it instead of a trap

Thanks for your suggestions!

I wonder if this can be done using in FG automation stitch with the below events in order to send a mail or do other action.

• ID: 22153 / Name: LOG_ID_TEMP_NORM
• ID: 22109 / Name: LOG_ID_TEMP_TOO_HIGH
• ID: 22152 / Name: LOG_ID_TEMP_TOO_LOW

The log Field "devid" (Device ID) should contain the device ID of the affected device.

Ref: https://docs.fortinet.com/document/fortigate/7.4.3/fortios-log-message-reference/22109/22109-log-id-...

This can be tested if one can simulate a high temperature condition on a FortiSwitch.

Thanks @AEK I'll try to test this...I think this is for fortigate, but is worth the try

Please share once tested. Curious to know if it works.

I barely burnt the Switch, but tested it...and it's not raising the alarm...I think the event it's only for FortiGate

Sorry for your switch. But thanks for sharing the information.

We use Auvik for monitoring and they have an API to configure on the Fortigates to pull information over the forti-link. We get data from fortiswitches and fortiap this way. Maybe your tool has something similar https://19216801.onl/ ?

Hi @bankone yeap,,.that it's an interesting approach, however I wanted the FG to raise the alarm, instead of querying the FG each x time...but it's valid approach...thanks!
