  • Publication number: 20230280716
    Abstract: A method, device, and computer readable medium for managing overheat behavior in a network device. The method includes determining that a first temperature exceeds a threshold by at least one temperature sensor disposed in a network device. The method includes logging a temperature sensor name of the at least one temperature sensor, the first temperature, and actions taken prior to determining that the first temperature exceeds the threshold. The method further includes disabling network device capabilities and enabling a subset of network device capabilities after powering cycling the network device.

  • Patent number: 11650645
    Abstract: Power management includes receiving power supply unit (PSU) power capacity data and PSU power consumption data from each PSU in a set of PSUs. A priority table is updated with controlled device power consumption data received from a set of controlled devices. If the PSU power consumption data of any PSU exceeds an associated threshold calculated based on the PSU power capacity data for the PSU, then one or more controlled devices are selected based on the controlled device power consumption data in the priority table. When power consumption data of any PSU exceeds the associated threshold, a power response procedure powers off at least one of the selected one or more controlled devices, reduces power supplied to at least one of the selected one or more controlled devices, or reduces an output voltage of any of the PSU for which the PSU power consumption data exceeds the associated threshold.

  • Patent number: 11630499
    Abstract: Methods and systems for managing power for a Power over Ethernet (PoE) device are disclosed herein. The method may include obtaining, by a supervisor, power information from a plurality of power supply units (PSUs) to obtain total consumed power; obtaining, by the supervisor, a total system power capacity value associated with the plurality of PSUs; and calculating, by the supervisor, a total available PoE power value using the total consumed power and the total system power capacity value; and making a first determination, by the supervisor, using the total available PoE power value and a PoE power table, whether a powered device should stop receiving power.

  • Patent number: 11385697
    Abstract: Methods and systems for managing power for a Power over Ethernet (PoE) device are disclosed herein. The method may include: configuring a power sourcing equipment (PSE) controller component with an interface keep-on order that indicates a relative priority for providing power to interfaces of the PSE controller component; storing, by a supervisor, keep-on order values and interface identifiers in entries of a PoE power table; transmitting to the supervisor, by the PSE controller component, a first interface power draw value associated with a first interface and a second interface power draw value associated with a second interface; storing, by the supervisor, the interface power draw values entries associated with the respective interfaces; and performing, by the supervisor and in response to a power event, a power management action.
