This article has got a mobile phone client application to follow up to system room temperature. That first version is especially for Nokia Phones. }
Checking the system room temperature with Cisco:
Cisco routers have internaly got "show environment" or "show environment temperature" commands. We can get the temperature information with these commands. we can also use the article on page "http://stdioe.blogspot.com/2011/09/how-to-follow-up-temperature-of-system_23.html" to get that info from Cisco routers using the script below:
#!/usr/bin/perl
use Net::Telnet::Cisco;
my $session = Net::Telnet::Cisco->new(Host => 'x.x.x.x');
$session->login('TelnetUser', 'TelnetPassword');
# Execute a command
my @output = $session->cmd('show environment');
print @output;
$session->close;
attention!:
Cisco routers have different IOS versions and different IOS's have got different level of detail.
First Cisco example:
The first example is about Cisco 3661. It has got following IOS version;

HostName_Router_3661#
This IOS version supports only the "show environment" command and the output is simple. It hasn't got any value about the temperature as shown below:
HostName_Router_3661#show environment
Power Supply 1 is present.
Thermal status: normal
Input Voltage status: normal
DC Output Voltage status: normal
Power Supply 2 is present.
Thermal status: normal
Input Voltage status: normal
DC Output Voltage status: normal
Board Temperature: normal.
HostName_Router_3661#
We have to grep the "Thermal status:" line and split it using the ":" character and get the usual part. The perl script should be changed for this goal as shown below:
#!/usr/bin/perl
use Net::Telnet::Cisco;
my $session = Net::Telnet::Cisco->new(Host => 'x.x.x.x');
$session->login('userName', 'passWord');
my @output = $session->cmd('show environment');
$session->close;
foreach $item (@output)
{
if(grep(/Thermal status/, $item) == "1") {
($key, $value) = split(/:/,$item);
}
}
sub trim($)
{
my $string = shift;
$string =~ s/^\s+//;
$string =~ s/\s+$//;
return $string;
}
$value = trim($value);
print "theValue:".$value."\n";
# If you want to write result to a file, you can use following part with erase "#" chars.
#open (target, ">tempfile.txt") || die ("Could not open file <br> $!");
#print target "$value";
#close (target);
We can do the parsing step in this Perl script or we can save the output of "show environment" command to a file and than handle it with shell commands. Lets try this way on "Second cisco example":

Voltage 2(5150) is Normal, Current voltage = 5153 mV
Voltage 3(2500) is Normal, Current voltage = 2525 mV
Voltage 4(1200) is Normal, Current voltage = 1215 mV
Nominal frequency
HostName_Router_3800#
We are interested in the temperature of system room, so we will use "Backplane temperature" part in this case. But other values are really very helpful for different purposes so you can edit this sample for something else like CPU. In this case, the Perl script records all of the output of "show environment" command to a file and we will handle that work using linux shell commands,
#!/usr/bin/perl
use Net::Telnet::Cisco;
my $session = Net::Telnet::Cisco->new(Host => 'x.x.x.x');
$session->login('userName', 'passWord');
my @output = $session->cmd('show environment');
$session->close;
open (target, ">tempfile.txt") || die ("Could not open file <br> $!");
print target "@output";
close (target);
Right now, all the information that we need is in the text file. We can handle it easily with linux shell commands. Lets continue,
grep "Backplane temperature" tempfile.txt | awk -F ' ' '{print $4}' | awk -F ',' '{print $1}'
The above result is 25 in this sample. We can use this final result as described on "http://stdioe.blogspot.com/2011/09/how-to-follow-up-temperature-of-system_23.html" article.
Checking system room temperature with Juniper / Netscreen:
Right now, I'm using an ISG2000 to prepare this article. The version information is;
Hardware Version: 3010(0)-(04), FPGA checksum: 00000000, VLAN1 IP (0.0.0.0)
Software Version: 6.1.0r3.0, Type: Firewall+VPN
We can use the following command to get the temperature information:
UGC:isg2000-UP(M)-> get chassis
Chassis Environment:
Power Supply: Good
Fan Status: Good
CPU Temperature: 104'F ( 40'C)
Slot Information:

4 Management 0081082006000307 0049-004 D11 104'F (40'C)
5 ASIC Board 000319230H060098 0050-003 C00

Alarm Control Information:

Temperature audible alarm: disabled
Normal alarm temperature is 132'F (56'C)
Severe alarm temperature is 150'F (66'C)
UGC:isg2000-UP(M)->
We can use the "|" (pipe) function to get required lines only. (Also This feature exists in Cisco. I try to write different solutions in each single example. But of course you can also use the pipe function in Cisco example.)
UGC:isg2000-UP(M)-> get chassis | include temperature
CPU Temperature: 104'F ( 40'C)
Slot Type S/N Assembly-No Version Temperature
Temperature audible alarm: disabled
Normal alarm temperature is 132'F (56'C)
Severe alarm temperature is 150'F (66'C)
UGC:isg2000-UP(M)->
This output is better, isn't it? Let's write a Perl script to get this info from the Juniper box to a file on our system.
#!/usr/bin/perl
use Net::Telnet::Netscreen ();
my $fw = new Net::Telnet::Netscreen(host=>'x.x.x.x');
$fw->login('username','password') or die $fw->error;
@lines = $fw->cmd("get chassis | include temperature");
open (target, ">tempfile.txt") || die ("Could not open file <br> $!");
print target "@lines";
close (target);
Now, we can use the content of tempfile.txt file. If you want to focus on only only a single line of this content, you can change "temperature" part on "get chassis | include temperature" command but It's not needed because, we can already manipulate that string with grep and awk commands.
Checking system room temperature with HP Procurve switch:
The first step is writing a Perl script to get the temperature information from Hp Procurve Switch. We can use a script as shown below:
#!/usr/bin/perl
use Net::Telnet ();
$session = new Net::Telnet (Timeout => 5,
Telnetmode => 0,
Prompt => '/PROMPTofDEVICE#/',
Host => "x.x.x.x");
# $session->waitfor('/Press any key to continue/');
# $session->print("");
$session->waitfor('/Password: /');
$session->print('PassworDofDevice');
$session->waitfor('/PROMPTofDEVICE#/');
@lines = $session->cmd("show system temperature");
$session->cmd("exit");
$session->cmd("exit");
open (target, ">tempfile.txt") || die ("Could not open file <br> $!");
print target "@lines";
close (target);
When we connect to a Procurve device, a "Press any key to continue" expression is shown. Some versions don't require this message to be shown. If you want this message to be shown, you can delete the '#' chars at the beginning of lines. The tempfile.txt file contains the information below:
System Air Temperatures
# |Current Temp | Max Temp | Min Temp | Threshold | OverTemp
-------+-------------+----------+----------+-----------+----------
Sys-1 | 20C | 29C | 14C | 55C | NO
We can use a command as follows:
grep Sys-1 tempfile.txt | awk -F ' ' '{print $3}'
We can add that script to crontab and record output to mysql table. The other script/service can analyze recorded values like "http://stdioe.blogspot.com/2011/09/how-to-follow-up-temperature-of-system_23.html" article.
