Introduction

This setting example explains the procedure of PoE Scheduler Setting.
This setting enables to manage schedules of power supply to IP phones. Contact your manager responsible for IP phone before conducting the settings.

Applicable models

Overview

This function turns off the power supply during out-of-operation hours by managing the schedule of PoE power supply for switch.
It enables energy saving and operation control on PoE devices.
* To activate PoE Scheduler, the Scheduler time has to be synchronized with the server clock via SNTP.

Configuration Example

Overall setting flow

  • 1. Set Switch-S24GPWR.
    • 1) Set 192.168.1.100/24 as the IP address.
    • 2) Set SNTP (Server IP: 192.168.1.1, Synchronization interval: 60min).
    • 3) Set PoE Scheduler in accordance with the schedule described in the above configuration example.
  • 2. Connect Switch-S24GPWR with each device.
