When my AP-105's boot from my procurve switches, I'm seeing them get denied POE from the switch due to insufficient power allocation. However, they should have plenty of power. I have even gone so far as to manually force allocation of an AP up to 30 watts, and it still throws the error. Has anyone else seen this?
Technical info:
Aruba AP-105s
HP Procurve 5412zl with POE+ modules and (1) POE+ PSU.
Total theoretical power available = 300 watts.
On the individual switch, there are a total of (4) APs, all AP-105s.
There are (2) APs on module A, (2) on module B.
All POE has been disabled on every other port in the switch.
Additionally, all ports except the AP ports are manuall set to allocate a max of 1 watt power (the minimum you can set).
My "show power brief" report lists 200 watts remaining available, and on slot A, 100 watts remaining power. Yet if I power-cycle an AP on module A, it tosses this:
