Netonix Forums

I've run into this odd problem, and I hope that someone can help me figure out what's going on. I've tested with both WS-6-mini-AC's and a WS-8DC, using the latest firmware and even some of the older firmware loads and the problem persists.


If I have a unit supplying 48VH to a WS-6-mini, but I have the port disabled (don't want ethernet), on a reboot it will fail to power correctly the WS-6-mini and it never boots up. If I then enable the port, it will begin to power the WS-6-mini correctly, at which point I can go ahead and disable the port again and everything works fine.

This happens regardless of if I have POE-smart enabled for that port or not.

I've setup a bunch of units on the test bench and have been able to replicate the problem consistently.


Is this a bug or am I doing something wrong? Thanks

This I thought was fixed in v1.3.3??

Are you sure you are running v1.3.3 on the switch that powers the MINI?

Yah, both netonix's we tested it with were running the latest 1.3.3

Firmware Version 1.3.3

I have not tested this but I will assume what you say is correct and will make sure it gets addressed in v1.3.5 which "should" be coming out soon?

Very good! Quite so. Marvelous product.

instead of disabling the port, set it in it's own vlan. that way it's up, but can't talk to anything. just a thought.
