Description: Extends standard Power over Ethernet (PoE) management on H3C/3Com switches with vendor-specific per-port power configuration and extended status objects.

Start monitoring vendor-neutral, standards-based MIB, any SNMPv3-capable network device (SNMP engine identity/boot/clock status) with a free 30-day trial of IPNetwork Monitor. Import MIBs, browse SNMP OIDs, create custom SNMP monitors, configure alerts, and monitor any SNMP-enabled network device from a single console.

What Is A3COM-HUAWEI-POWER-ETH-EXT-MIB?

A3COM-HUAWEI-POWER-ETH-EXT-MIB extends the standard Power over Ethernet MIB with H3C/3Com vendor-specific per-port power objects and additional PoE status detail on switches that supply power to connected devices such as IP phones, wireless access points, and cameras. It is expected to expose per-port power-delivery configuration, such as power priority and maximum power budget per port, alongside extended power-status objects beyond the base standard's port-detection states. This is a hardware-health-relevant MIB: per-port power draw and PoE fault-status extensions let an admin detect a powered device drawing abnormal power or a power supply nearing its total power budget, both signs of impending PoE failure. Dependency: it explicitly depends on and extends the IETF POWER-ETHERNET-MIB (RFC 3621) rather than replacing it. Deployment is on H3C/3Com access-layer PoE switches powering endpoint devices like VoIP phones and wireless access points, where A3COM-HUAWEI-POWER-ETH-EXT-MIB SNMP monitoring gives administrators early warning of per-port power faults.

IPNetwork Monitor allows you to monitor SNMP objects defined in A3COM-HUAWEI-POWER-ETH-EXT-MIB. Use the built-in SNMP Monitoring Browser to explore available variables, view their current values and descriptions, and select the objects you want to monitor. You can then create SNMP monitors, configure thresholds, and receive alerts when monitored values change.

Supported Devices

  • H3C/3Com PoE-capable access switches

Monitoring Examples

No specific object or table names were present in the sampled source for this module, since its module_desc is only "Description.", so a concrete OID-level scenario is not given here to avoid inventing identifiers. In a typical deployment an admin would poll per-port power-consumption and fault-status extensions to the base Power-Ethernet MIB, and a port reporting a power-denied or overload fault would indicate the connected PoE device is drawing more power than its configured budget allows.

What Can Be Monitored

  • per-port power draw
  • per-port power priority/budget
  • PoE fault/overload status
