Is there a way to verify how much wattage an AP is receiving?

I have an R550 with the current firmware on it.   It has an orange Icon in the corner of the unit about the  wifi 6 indicator.   When I click onit I get - "Not enough electricity is provided to this AP, it's capabilities are degraded.  Please refer to "unleash power supply considerations -> Power limitations by POE mode and AP Model" page in User Guide for details."    The unit I have it connected to is POE+ for the port it is on and should have plenty of power.

This would normally be verified on the switch port the AP is connected to. The AP will only advise if it is running at reduced function set, it won't report the incoming power detail.

The R550 requires 19 watts PoE+ power for maximum operation.

I hope that helps,

Darrel.
