Question

Does Bosch camera support SNMP traps for 'Power supply' and 'Poe-granted-power'?

Answer

The SNMP traps related to “Power supply” and “Poe-granted-power” are available only on specific Bosch camera models and under certain conditions.

Below is a detailed overview of their functionality:

Power Supply Trap

• This trap is only applicable to devices with multiple power sources that are detectable by the firmware.

• Currently, no Bosch devices use this trap. The last device to support it was the VIPX1600.

PoE-Granted-Power Trap

• Applicable only to cameras that support dynamic PoE level adjustments.

• Confirmed working on:

  • MIC 7000i

  • AUTODOME 7000i
    (Both running on CPP 7.3)

• Not supported on:

  • AUTODOME 4000

  • AUTODOME 5000

• Pending testing:

  • Cameras based on CPP13 and CPP14

Note

• These SNMP traps function only on cameras that provide the relevant capability.

• The PoE-granted-power trap appears to function only on moving (PTZ) cameras, based on internal testing.
