PoE MIB

RouterOS General
1

Hi,

Is anyone aware of a Mikrotik router that supports controls of PoE ports over SNMP? Specifically, I’d like to be able to access the power consumption for the port and if the power is too high, disable the port accordingly. This is for an off-grid application where batteries power the application, and power must be managed very carefully. I currently have been playing with a Hex PoE, but it doesn’t appear to have this support over SNMP. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Thanks.

So what you need is the overall consumption…

Open a terminal and type system health print oid

There you will see if there is an oid for the power consumption for your device which you can use with snmp later…

For example in a CRS328 there is a power consumption oid…

Wow, thank you. I’d been looking for that! Thanks for the prompt reply.
