I've searched the archives, and didn't see anything current. I am looking for a small, cheap, simply device, that can measure temp and be polled via SNMP. POE would be a plus. Any pointers? -- Alex Rubenstein, AR97, K2AHR, alex () nac net, latency, Al Reuben -- -- Net Access Corporation, 800-NET-ME-36, http://www.nac.net --
This is a bit of a late reply, but it appears that there is a reasonably inexpensive solution that I had not found when I originally replied to this message:
http://www.sensatronics.com/TempTrax/index.htmlThere are serial versions and ethernet-based versions. The serial version looks simple enough even to connect to the console of a Cisco for remote access via a script, and the ethernet version doesn't appear too complex, either. (Does a standard Cisco AUX port provide DTR power?) The downside is that they're not SNMP-capable directly; an intermediate glue routine would need to be written.
You can find Nagios (a popular Open-Source monitoring platform) plug-ins for these devices here:
