Hardware Statistics on Management Center

The hardware statistics on the management center appliance (only physical) includes information on its hardware entities, such as fan speed, power supply, and temperature. For SNMP to poll and send traps to monitor the health of a management center:

  1. Enable SNMP on the management center for polling the MIBs. By default, the SNMP on the management center is disabled.

  2. Add an ACL entry for each of the required SNMP host to enable traps. Ensure to specify the host’s IP address and select the port as SNMP. See Configure an Access List.

To view the hardware statistics on the Health > Monitor page:

  1. On the Health > Policy page, ensure that the Hardware Statistics module is enabled. You can change the default threshold values.

  2. Add a portlet to the management center health monitoring dashboard—select Hardware Statistics metric group, and then select Fan Speed and Temperature metrics.

You can view the power supply status under the firewall management center in the Health Monitoring > Home page.

Note

  • The fan speed is displayed in RPM.

  • The temperature is displayed in °C (Celsius).

  • When one slot of the power supply is active, the dashboard displays it as Online and the other slot as No Power.

  • Each horizontal line in the graphs shows the status for each PSU and fan respectively.

  • Hover over the graph to view the data of that individual statistics.
