port

[poefunction=enable|disable]

[priority=low|high|critical] [powerlimit=

value

]

Parameters

port

Specifies a port. You can configure more than one port

at a time. For instructions on how to enter port
numbers, refer to “Port Numbers in Commands” on
page 47.

poefunction

Enables and disables PoE on a port. The default setting

is enabled. This parameter is equivalent to the
DISABLE POE PORT and DISABLE POE PORT
commands.

priority

Specifies the port’s priority as LOW, HIGH, or

CRITICAL.

powerlimit

Specifies the maximum amount of power the powered

device is allowed to draw from the port. The value is
specified in milliwatts (mW). The range is 3,000 to
15,400 mW. The default value is the maximum amount
15,400 mW.

Description

This command configures the PoE settings on a port.

The POEFUNCTION parameter enables and disables PoE on the ports.
The default setting is enabled. This parameter is equivalent to the
DISABLE POE PORT and DISABLE POE PORT commands.

The PRIORITY parameter is used to set the priorities of the ports. If the
power requirements of the devices exceed the power resources of a
switch, power is supplied or denied to the ports based on their port
priorities. You can use this parameter to ensure that powered devices
critical to the operations of your network are given preferential treatment
by the switch in the distribution of power should the demands of the
devices exceed the available capacity.

There are three priority levels:

ˆ

Critical

ˆ

High

ˆ

Low
