Abstract

The invention discloses network equipment as well as a control method and system thereof and a data center. The control method of the network equipment comprises the following steps: obtaining the temperature of a target device in the network equipment, wherein the network equipment is the network equipment of the data center; based on the temperature of the target device, obtaining the target rotating speed of a fan in the network equipment; and based on the target rotating speed, controlling the fan. The control method disclosed by the invention solves the technical problem that the controlmethod of the network equipment in related technology controls the rotating speed of the fan according to the temperature of an air inlet to cause large power consumption.

Description

technical field [0001] The present application relates to the field of data centers, in particular, to a network device, its control method and system, and a data center. Background technique [0002] As data centers have more and more stringent requirements on energy consumption, the electricity expenses of cooling equipment such as air supply systems in data centers and electricity expenses of equipment including switches have become more and more concerned. In order to save the power consumption of the device itself, the energy consumption of the system needs to be kept as low as possible, such as keeping the fan speed at the lowest speed as much as possible. [0003] At present, the existing fan control algorithms for switches on the market basically adjust the fan speed based on the temperature of the air inlet. When the temperature of the air inlet remains unchanged, the fan speed of the switch also remains unchanged. In fact, when the temperature of the air inlet rem...
