Is there a way to monitor the status of the PoE on the HP switch's - recently we had a switch PoE function go bad - changed to "FAULT" status and stopped delivering power. Looking to monitor that condition / possibly more (current power usage on switch?)

Hi dgood1975,

If the device supports SNMP, please check if the vendor of your device offers any MIB files that you can import with our MIB-Importer. If so, you can monitor the target with the "SNMP Library Sensor".

Here's a Knowledge Base Article that describes the setup of "SNMP Library Sensors":

and there's also a video that shows how to:
