Status codes on PoE ports
You may see an error displayed for a port running PoE. If these errors
appear, they are in the port status section of the PoE displays in the CLI
and the web-based management system. The following are the messages
that display and their explanations:
• Detecting—port detecting IP device requesting power
•
Delivering power—port delivering requested power to device
•
Disabled—port power state disabled
•
Invalid PD—port detecting device that is not valid to request power
•
Deny low priority—power disabled from port because of port setting and
demands on power budget
•
Overload—power disabled from port because port is overloaded
•
Test—port in testing mode, which is set using SNMP
•
Error—an unspecified error condition
Configuring PoE switch parameters using the CLI
You configure power parameters for each Ethernet Routing Switch
2500-PWR using the CLI. You can configure the DC power source, the
power pairs, and the power usage with this management system. This
section contains information about the following topics:
