PD Alive Error
« on: October 10, 2019, 01:09:41 PM »

I was excited to see PD Alive on the DGS products. Found no problem with the DGS-1210-10P, in setting up several PoE Devices on them. In another installation I was doing the same with the DGS-1210-28P switch but found to my dismay I could only set up 10 ports max with PD alive.

Is this intended, because it seems silly that this feature doesn't scale with the bigger sized switches?

There shouldn't be a port limitation for that feature as long as all the clients support it. I sent an email to the switch group for an answer.

What hardware revision and firmware is on the 28P?

DGS-1210-28P
Hardware Revision: F1
Firmware Version: 6.11.B033 (was using B023 before but upgraded to see if it would fix it)

The Error I see is:
PD Alive Configuration
Set PDA State Fail.

I had set up Ports 1 - 10 with this on, failed on 11. Disabled 10 was then able to Enable Port 11. Can't enable 10 or 12 after that. That's how I came to the conclusion of 10 port limit.

They emailed the product manager/engineers in Taiwan for an answer if it is a bug or by design. I hope to hear back Monday or Tuesday.

The engineers are looking into this issue and will be testing with the vendor this week.

I got a BETA firmware. Let us know if this corrected the issue. There was a 10 port limit in the firmware but they corrected it for devices with more than 10 ports.

Sorry for the lack of reply.

Its been applied to the site's 3 28 port switches, I was able to go over the previous 10 limit. I will let you know if there's any issues.

Thanks for all your help!

I've had no problems with that site and have since applied it to another. It looks stable.
