4.5.5 PoE Alive Check Configuration
The HPOE-1200G/HPOE-2400G PoE Switch can be configured to monitor connected PD’s status in real-time via ping
action. Once the PD stops working and without response, the HPOE-1200G/HPOE-2400G PoE switch is going to restart
PoE port power, and bring the PD back to work. It will greatly enhance the reliability and reduces administrator
management burden.
This page provides you how to configure PD Alive Check as he screen in Figure 4-15-14 appears.

The page includes the following fields:
Object Description
 Mode Allows user to enable or disable per port PD Alive Check function. All ports are
disabled as default value.
 Remote PD IP Address This column allows user to set PoE device IP address here for system making ping
to the PoE device. Please note that the PD’s IP address must be set to the same
network segment as the HPOE-1200G/HPOE-2400G PoE switch.
 Interval Time (10~300s) This column allows user to set how long system should issue a ping request to PD
for detecting whether PD is alive or dead. Interval time range is from 10 seconds to
300 seconds.
 Retry Count (1~5) This column allows user to set how many times system wants to retry ping to PD.
For example, if we set count 2, the meaning is that if system retry ping to the PD and
the PD doesn’t response continuously, the PoE port will be reset.
 Action Allows user to set which action will be apply if the PD is without any response. The
HPOE-1200G/HPOE-2400G PoE Switch offers 3 actions as follows:
 PD Reboot: It means system will reset the PoE port that is connected to the
PD.
 Reboot & Alarm: It means system will reset the PoE port and issue an alarm
message via Syslog, SMTP.
 Alarm: It means system will issue an alarm message via Syslog, SMTP.
 Reboot Time (30~180s) This column allows user to set the PoE device rebooting time. As there are so many
kinds of PoE devices on the market, they have different rebooting times. The PD
Alive-check is not a defining standard, so the PoE device on the market doesn’t
report reboots done information to the HPOE-1200G/HPOE-2400G PoE switch. So
