learn their classification. This is the default setting.
• Never — Disables the Device Discovery protocol, and stops the power supply
to the device using the PoE module.
• Oper. 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.
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:
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:
• Low — Defines the PoE priority level as low.
• High — Defines the PoE priority level as high.
• Critical — Defines the PoE priority level as Critical. This is the highest PoE
priority level.
• Power Consumption — Indicates the amount of power assigned to the powered
device connected to the selected interface. The possible field values are:
• Powered Device — Provides a user-defined powered device description. The field
can contain up to 24 characters.
