Figure 98: PoE Interface Page
The PoE Interface Page contains the following fields:
•
Admin Status — Indicates the device PoE mode. The possible field values are:
–
Auto — Enables the Device Discovery protocol, and provides power to the device using the PoE module.
The Device Discovery Protocol enables the device to discover Powered Devices attached to the device
interfaces, and to learn their classification. This is the default settings.
–
Never — Disables the Device Discovery protocol, and stops the power supply to the device using the
PoE module.
•
Operation Status — Indicates if the port is enabled to work on PoE. The possible field values are:
–
On — Indicates the device is delivering power to the interface.
–
Off — Indicates the device is not delivering power to the interface.
–
Test Fail —Indicates the powered device test has failed. For example, a port could not be enabled and
cannot be used to deliver power to the powered device.
–
Testing — Indicates the powered device is being tested. For example, a powered device is tested to
confirm it is receiving power from the power supply.
–
Searching — Indicates that the device is currently searching for a powered device. Searching is the
default PoE operational status.
–
Fault — Indicates that the device has detected a fault on the powered device. For example, the powered
device memory could not be read.
•
Priority Level — Determines the port priority if the power supply is low. The port power priority is used if the
power supply is low. The field default is low. For example, if the power supply is running at 99% usage, and
port 1 is prioritized as high, but port 3 is prioritized as low, port 1 is prioritized to receive power, and port 3 may
be denied power. The possible field values are:
