After a PoE configuration file is applied to a PoE interface, other PoE configuration files can not
take effect on this PoE interface.
z
If a PoE configuration file is already applied to a PoE interface, you must execute the
undo apply
poe-profile
command to remove the application to the interface before deleting or modifying the
PoE configuration file.
z
If you have configured a PoE interface through the command line, you cannot configure it through a
PoE configuration file again. If you want to reconfigure the interface through a PoE configuration
file, you must first remove the command line configuration on the PoE interface.
