is an endpoint that enables advanced power monitoring and control of
the individual loads connected to the ePower power outlets.
To enable integration with a Cisco EnergyWise domain:
1. Connect the ePower’s network port to an upstream domain member,
such as a Cisco Catalyst
®
switch.
2. Enable Cisco EnergyWise endpoint support for the ePower unit
(or other domain member).
