The switch functions intermittently.
Problem 5:
Check the system hardware status through the management
Solutions:
software:
Use the SHOW SYSTEM ENVIRONMENT command in the
Privileged Exec mode to verify that the input voltage from the
power source to the switch is stable and within the approved
operating range. The unit will shut down if the input voltage
fluctuates above or below the approved operating range.
Use the SHOW SYSTEM ENVIRONMENT command in the
Privileged Exec mode to verify that the fan is operating correctly.
Verify that the location of the switch allows for adequate airflow.
The unit will shut down if it is in danger of overheating.
A port on the GS970M/10PS, GS970M/18PS, or
Problem 6:
GS970M/28PS switch is not providing power to a PoE device.
Check the following:
Solutions:
Review the PD's documentation to confirm that the device supports
Mode A of the IEEE 802.3at standard. Mode A is one of two modes
that define the connector pins that deliver the power from the port
in the switch to the powered device. In Mode A, the power is
carried on pins 1, 2, 3, and 6 on the RJ-45 port, the same pins that
carry the network traffic. The second mode, Mode B, defines pins
4, 5, 7, and 8 as the power carriers. The GS970M Series switches
do not support Mode B. Most powered devices are designed to
accept power by either mode, but some legacy devices may only
support one mode. This can be verified by reviewing the device's
documentation or data sheet. Legacy devices that only support
Mode B will not work with the switches.
Check that the device's power requirements do not exceed 30 W.
This can be verified by reviewing the device's documentation or
data sheet.
Verify that you are using the appropriate category of twisted-pair
cable by referring to Table 3 and Table 4.
Use the management software on the switch to determine whether
PoE is enabled on the port. The default setting for PoE is enabled.
Use the management software on the switch to determine whether
the PoE power setting for the port has been reduced to a value
below the power requirements of the device.
Try connecting the device to a different port on the switch.
