Technical Tip: FortiAP operating temperature

[Anthony_E]

Description
This enhancement allows the wireless controller to obtain temperature values from FortiAP-F models that have built-in temperature sensors.

Solution
The following commands are available in FortiOS:

# get wireless-controller wtp-status <serial number> | grep Temp
# diagnose wireless-controller wlac -c wtp <serial number> | grep Temp

The following command is available in FortiAP:

# cw_diag -c temperature

The temperature measured by the censors is displayed in degrees Celsius.

Sample FortiOS diagnostics:

# get wireless-controller wtp-status FP231FTF20000000 | grep Temp
  Temperature in Celsius: 1 (52)
# diagnose wireless-controller wlac -c wtp FP433FTF20000000 | grep Temp
  Temperature in Celsius: 3 (55,57,54)
Sample FortiAP diagnostics:
# cw_diag -c temperature
Temperature in Celsius: 3 (52,52,52)
