If you have cisco routers or switches in the same cabinet some have on board
thermometers (I know the 6000 and 7500 series do).  you can query them using
SMTP, and use MRTG (www,mrtg.org) to graph it.  not military accuracy, but
free and relativly easy.

Just a thought,
Dan

Subject: temperature monitoring


We are discovering that both data and voice equipment at several of our 
remote sites is installed in rooms that are...shall we say...less than 
ideal.  Specifically...at the moment...the rooms are too hot.

I was wondering if anyone knows of anything that one can use to monitor the 
temperature and humidity of a room, or more specifically the datacomm 
cabinet.  (Some 'black box' that uses SNMP?)  The only STANDALONE equipment 
that can monitor temperature and humidity (that I know of) is APC's 
Environmental Monitoring unit (AP9312TH).  The only NON-stand alone 
temperature monitoring that I'm currently aware of, is APC's PowerChute 
software that monitors the UPS temperature.  But it does NOT monitor the 
AMBIENT temperature, nor humidity.  And it's the ambient temperature in the 
cabinet I'm wanting to monitor.

Thanks in advance, your help is appreciated...  :)
