Overview
For information about this warning, see the “Important Notice” appendix.
Overview
In a Cisco EnergyWise network, EnergyWise monitors and manages the power usage of powered
devices: Cisco devices in a domain and all the connected end points.
An end point can be a device connected to the network, such as an IP phone, access point, or PC.
An entity refers to a domain member or an end point.
You can configure policies, referred to as recurring events or recurrences, to use time-of-day settings to
automatically manage power usage.
Warning
Voice over IP (VoIP) service and the emergency calling service do not function if power fails or is
disrupted. After power is restored, you might have to reset or reconfigure equipment to regain
access to VoIP and the emergency calling service. In the USA, this emergency number is 911. You
need to be aware of the emergency number in your country.
