Checking the Cooling System Status
Purpose For the cooling system to operate properly, the clearance around the chassis must be
sufficient for unobstructed airflow. For clearance and maintenance requirements, see
the appropriate router hardware guide.
Action To check the cooling system status, use the following operational mode command:
user@host> show chassis environment
