Wow, i didn't know that. Monitoring is going green ;-) i checked the technical overview of energywise here http://www.cisco.com/en/US/prod/collateral/switches/ps5718/ps10195/prod_presentation_c97-512619.pdf Looks like there is a 'management API' that devices use to communicate. Since not much is mentioned about that, i suppose all this is *not* open ;-) or you know of any activity under IETF umbrella ? thanks Saifi. http://twitter.com/saifikhan
