The PoE monitoring function involves monitoring of PoE power, PSE and PD.
Monitoring PoE power means monitoring the voltage of the PoE power.
■
When the current power utilization of the PSE is above or below the alarm
■
threshold for the first time, the system will send a Trap message.
When the PSE starts or stops supplying power to a PD, the system will send a
■
Trap message, too.
Follow these steps to configure a power alarm threshold for the PSE:

You can upgrade the PSE processing software online in either of the following
modes:
refresh mode
■
This mode enables you to update the PSE processing software without deleting it.
Normally, you can upgrade the PSE processing software in the refresh mode
through the command line.
full mode
■
This mode deletes the PSE processing software and reloads it. When the PSE
processing software is damaged (in this case, you can execute none of PoE
commands successfully), you can upgrade the PSE processing software in full
mode to restore the PSE function.

Configuring the PoE Monitoring Function

Use the command...
interface
interface-type
interface-number
poe priority { critical |
high | low }
poe-profile
profile-name [ index ]
poe priority { critical |
high | low }
poe pd-policy priority Optional
Use the command...
system-view
poe utilization-threshold
utilization-threshold-value
[ pse pse-id ]
Remarks
Use either approach.
By default, the power
priority of a PoE
interface is low.
By default, no PD
power management
priority policy is
configured.
Remarks
-
Optional
By default, the power alarm threshold
for the PSE is 80%.
The support of the pse pse-id
argument varies with devices.
