Ext Power Supply connected but not responding.

The switch detects an external power supply, but is not receiving power from the device.

Ext Power Supply failure: < fault-type> Failures:

Indicates an external power supply failure where < fault-type> is one of the following:

Over Current fault: The ProCurve 600 RPS/EPS or ProCurve 610 EPS reported a fault condition. Contact your ProCurve support representative.

Fan fault: A fan in an external power supply has failed.

Temperature fault: The operating temperature in an external power supply has exceeded the normal operating range.

50V fault: The ProCurve 600 RPS/EPS or ProCurve 610 EPS reported a fault condition. Contact your ProCurve support representative.

12V fault: The ProCurve 600 RPS/EPS or ProCurve 610 EPS reported a fault condition. Contact your ProCurve support representative.

POE usage has exceeded threshold of < 1 - 99 > %

<slot-#> POE usage has exceeded threshold of < 1 - 99 > %

Indicates that POE usage in the switch or indicated slot (if the switch includes module slots) has exceeded the configured threshold for the switch, as specified by the last execution of the power threshold < 1 - 99 > command. (Note that the switch also generates an SNMP trap for this event.)

Port < port-#> PD Denied power due to insufficient power allocation.

There is insufficient power available to power the PD on the indicated port and the port does not have sufficient PoE priority to take power from another active PoE port.

Port < port-# > PD Invalid Signature indication.

The switch has detected a non 802.3af-compliant load.
