Abstract: An access point, which is a Power over Ethernet (PoE) Powered Device (PD) measures input voltage and input current. The access point determines a power requirement of the access point based on the measured current, measured voltage, and information about power requirements of access point components or devices coupled to the access point a power requirement of the access point. The access point communicates the determined power request to a power sourcing equipment (PSE), e.g., a network switch. In some embodiments, the access point further communicates one of: measured input current and measured input voltage to the PSE. The PSE uses the information received from the access point, e.g., power request and power measurements to determine an amount of power to be granted to the access point. If the access point does not receive the requested power level the access point selects internal components and/or external devices to de-power.

Abstract: A wireless access point system includes a processor configured to tap event data and process the event data using a plurality of event filters. Each event filter of the plurality of event filters applies event criteria to detect one or more types of events. The wireless access point system includes a memory configured to store the tapped event data. A communication interface configured to report a report of a detected event type. At least a portion of the report is correlated to analyze a performance of a wireless network.

Abstract: A first set of access rules is received from an access configuration service. The first set of access rules specifies addresses of devices authorized for a first user. A second set of access rules is received from the access configuration service. The second set of the access rules specifies addresses of devices authorized for a second user. At a wireless access point, a network packet associated with the first user is received. The first set of access rules is applied to filter the network packet.
