etsysPseModulePowerMode

Module: ENTERASYS-POWER-ETHERNET-EXT-MIB

OID (symbolic): ENTERASYS-POWER-ETHERNET-EXT-MIB::etsysPseModulePowerMode

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.5624.1.2.50.1.4.1.1.1

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: INTEGER

Access: read-write

Description: This object controls the power management of the PSE. It also controls how etsysPseModulePowerClassBudget, etsysPseModulePowerUsage and etsysPsePortPowerLimit are utilized.

In realtime mode, the power is managed based on the actual power consumption of the ports. etsysPseModulePowerClassBudget is sum of power consumed by all ports, measured in real-time. The etsysPseModulePowerUsage is ratio of pethMainPseConsumptionPower over pethMainPsePower, expressed in percents.

In class mode, the power is managed based on the IEEE 802.3af definition of the class upper limit, except classes 0 & 4 for which the actual power consumption is used. etsysPseModulePowerClassBudget is sum of all ports power according to their class upper bound, except classes 0 & 4 for which the actual power consumption is accounted. The etsysPseModulePowerUsage is ratio of etsysPseModulePowerClassBudget over pethMainPsePower, expressed in percents.

The effect of etsysPseModulePowerMode to etsysPsePortPowerLimit is described in etsysPsePortPowerLimit definition.

Maintaining the value of this object across agent reboots is REQUIRED.

What is etsysPseModulePowerMode?

This object selects how a PSE module's power budget is calculated: realtime(1), based on actual measured port power consumption, or class(2), based on the IEEE 802.3af class upper limits for each port (except classes 0 and 4, which still use actual consumption). An admin changes this mode because it affects how etsysPseModulePowerClassBudget, etsysPseModulePowerUsage, and etsysPsePortPowerLimit are calculated and enforced. For example, switching a module to class(2) mode makes the switch reserve power based on each connected device's negotiated PoE class rather than its live draw.
