[NEBULA] Is PoE scheduling handled by NSW?

WaYne

Hi all,
another question, I have PoE schedule configured, but I noticed that if my uplink is not connected the schedules won't work.
Shouldn't the schedule be done by the switch or is it not?

Hey there guys,
PoE schedule is managed by the cloud, what WaYne saw is an expected behaviour, NCC will tell your NSW to disable the power when meets the schedule. Since there is no internet connection when the uplink is unplugged, NSW is not able get the commands to disable PoE.

Hey WaYne, your question seems not clear to me. What did you mean "my uplink is not connected" ? Could you be more specific ?

Not pretty sure but might be that this process is handled by the cloud.

Maybe someone could confirm it, cc: @Nebula_Dean @Nebula_Bayardo @Nebula_James @Nebula_Charming @Nebula_Irene

Okay it is clear now, much appreciated thanks.

Settings should be cached to the device, so it would perform 100% of functions regarding of internet connectivity.
This is a feature request
Will an AP keep the ssid and security locally etc. if the Internet is not available?

Yeap, it does keep SSID and security configs, except if ur using cloud-auth then it depends on your NCAS configurations.
