      Hi,
      I have just set up my 6100 however am concerned regarding one of the thermal sensors reading exceptionnally high.

      Can anyone let me know where this sensor is and if I should be concerned?

        My guess: a bug.
        If temperature would be really 198°C, I would be concerned.
        Also the box would have been (at least partially) melted away. 😊

        Even when its Fahrenheit, it would be rather high (abt. 92°C).

        Looking forward, what Netgate team will say...

        Regards

          @rainbowdash This sensor is not reading any actual temperatures and will be ignored in future releases of pfSense Plus.

          You can safely ignore its reading for the time being.
