Question

If I use PoE (RUTX12) as a backup power source, is there a cli command to query which power source is being used?

The idea is to get a message if the main power source goes down.

Can I also request if PoE is available on LAN1 to monitor this power source as well?

Thank you

Hi,

Unfortunately to query the state of the main power source would require us hardware and software changes to be made on the device , so it's not really possible with current functionality. The only way would be probably having some kind of external circuit that would control incoming power to your device and if it would be connected to digital input - it could alert you on power loss or power receive.
