On both boards, after using them in the test setup for a few days, the Interface on the mikrotik that had the LAN side of the external POE Injector plugged into it now remains 'link ok' even when there is nothing plugged in, and the Mikrotik thinks the port is in a network loop. The only thing that looked out of the ordinary was that the Mikrotik POE was set to 'auto' and was showing state of 'short circuit' I did not realize this until after the problem started. I'm pretty sure the Mikrotik boards are fried, as nothing I do will stop them from having the interface up and in a loop state, but I'm not sure why it happened. Was there something with the mikrotik set to Auto POE and an external Gig POE adapter that fried the port? If so, warning to others out there to watch out for this.
I was using a RB951Ui-2HnD and a 750UP on my desk for some testing
because they were laying within reach. I was NOT using the POE Out
functionality of the boards. I was using an external 48V gig POE
Injector to bench test a Ruckus AP.
