Maybe if you could include a link to the actual device it would help.

It is interesting how the PoE 802.3 devices are listed under IO and not Ethernet. But they are Ethernet. Or at least one of them is. The intel Ethernet devices are both working fine. As they usually do.
That is an unusual combination of features.
A usb connection to a 4 port PoE device ? I've Googled and the closest I could find was a two port USB32000SPT.
I agree. Something looks fishy. I think I should see 4 USB devices listed. Not just one. All I see is:
Bus 001 Device 002: ID 8087:8008 Intel Corp. Bus 002 Device 002: ID 8087:8000 Intel Corp. Bus 003 Device 002: ID 0bda:8152 Realtek Semiconductor Corp. Bus 003 Device 003: ID 05f3:0405 PI Engineering, Inc. Bus 003 Device 004: ID 145f:01d3 Trust Bus 001 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub Bus 002 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub Bus 003 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub Bus 004 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0003 Linux Foundation 3.0 root hub
Are you sure that USB connection that you mention only in passing isn't the PoE power input port?
It is not a USB connection that we have. It is 4 RJ-45 connectors. The USB<->R8152 part is on the motherboard
Are you sure this doesn't contain a internal switch, in which case you wouldn't know about the Mac Addresses of the other ports unless you plugged into each one sequentially?
If there was only one RJ-45 maybe. But there are 4 physical connectors for these ports. And we are supposed to have 4 ports.
I suspect what we really have is a 4-port PoE switch connected to a single 8152 chip.
Not what we were expecting! Time to contact our friendly salesperson...
You're right about the Pie being listed as io ports. I suspect they are ports for transcievers or antennas or something. The spec sheet says only two Ethernet ports. The others are 802.11af, which is for some "white space" wifi sort of stuff. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/IEEE_802.11af Looks like stuff for cop cars, or roving instant wifi networks. -- Sent from my Android phone with K-9 Mail.
