Hello
I wanted to know if it's possible to control the fans on a DGS-1210-28MP switch.
Its been on my mind for a while but I neglected it and now I'm paying the consequences.
Some of my ports no longer provide POE and I believe that overheating might be the primary cause since I don't hear or see the fans running at all.
I've looked around in the wiki and forum but I haven't found a definite answer.
It seems to point to fan control not being possible on these devices but I want to be sure.
It's currently running openwrt 23.05.
Fan control was implemented in 24.10., it was missing in 23.05.
Yes. I just recently upgraded and I can hear the fans spinning.
So, how do I control them?
They are auto-controlled by the script at /sbin/fan_ctrl.sh which is launched by cron every 5 minutes. If you want manual control, you need to disable the daemon and do it yourself.
See https://github.com/openwrt/openwrt/commit/3c152904c22fb6754820e36a0b7bd20b90b64dc1 for the details.
Alright
Thanks!
