The PoE Scheduling tab is located on the Switch Details page as well as Media Converter Details page. This article explains the purpose of PoE scheduling and the features of the PoE Scheduling tab. For a configuration guide, please refer to the article How to configure PoE scheduling?
PoE Scheduling allows you to conveniently turn off devices whenever they are not needed. This helps to save energy and money, as well as reducing the burden on the environment. For this reason, we advise to supply power to your devices using one of our PoE Switches whenever possible, and to set up PoE scheduling as required by your deployment.
To go to the PoE Scheduling tab, follow the steps below:
- Log into the Plasma Cloud console;
- Select the Organisation and Network containing the device from top-right menu.
- In the main menu on the left, navigate to Switches or Media Converter.
- Click on your device of interest in the table. This will take you to the Device Details page.
- Locate the PoE Scheduling tab below the network chart.
