Configuring the NXA-ENET8-2POE

Configuring Power Reduction

The NXA-ENET8-2POE provides power saving methods including controlling the intensity of LEDs, and
powering down the circuitry for port queues when not in use.

Controlling LED Intensity

Use the LED Power Reduction Configuration page to reduces LED intensity during specified hours.

Command Usage



1.
Click Configuration, Power Reduction, LED.
2.
Set LED intensity for any required hour of the day. Click Add Time to set additional entries.
3.
Set the duration of full intensity when a link change occurs.
4.
Specify whether or not to use full intensity when a link error occurs.
5.
Click Apply.

Time at which LED intensity is set.
LED intensity (Range: 0-100%, in increments of 10%, where 0% means off and
100% means full power)
LEDs set at full intensity for a specified period when a link change occurs.
(Default: 10 seconds)
LEDs set at full intensity when a link error occurs.
The LEDs power consumption can be reduced by lowering the intensity. LED intensity could for
example be lowered during night time, or turned completely off. It is possible to set the LEDs
intensity for each of the 24 hours of the day.
When a network administrator performs maintenance of the switch (e.g., adding or moving users)
he might want to have full LED intensity during the maintenance period. Therefore it is possible to
specify set the LEDs at full intensity for a specific period of time. Maintenance time is the number
of seconds that the LEDs are set to full intensity after a port changes link state.
