Hello, my first post here!
I have come around a weird bug while provisionning a HPE 1920S PoE+ switch.
I have two identical 1920S switch brand new out of the box, which I upgraded from the PD.01.05 software version to the latest version PD.02.05. On the first switch I had no issues at at and my Aruba IAP-207 worked perfectly. On the other switch I realized that not a single AP was coming up, but my non-PoE wired devices had a link and connectivity.
Upon starting the troubleshooting steps, I saw the logs showed the following error message on all switchports: <12> Dec 31 19:19:00 Auberge-SW-2-1 POE[poe_monitor]: hpc_poe_brcm.c(9473) 3325 %% Unable to get the PortStaus for port 24 of unit 1
I then reverted back to the original code version on the switch and saw other PoE related messages and still nothing was working:
3 Jan 1 00:04:52 Error POE Unable to Download Firmware to PoE Unit 1, Card 0
4 Jan 1 00:04:52 Warning POE Code downloaded onto the PoE chip is bad. Need new Code
I then went on and tried another 1920S firmware version (PD.01.08) which seemed to fix the firmware issues, as my APs were finally getting power to them. I noticed also some logs related to PoE.
