are listed here:

Verifying the PoE
Budget
The PoE budget is the maximum wattage the switch has available for the
powered devices on its twisted pair ports. The budget should be 240W for
power supplies that meet the specifications in “Power Supplies” on
page 49.
The procedure assumes you have already started a local management
session on the switch. For instructions, refer to “Starting a Local
Management Session” on page 113. To confirm the PoE budget, perform
the following procedure:
1. Enter the ENABLE command at the User Exec mode to move to the
Privileged Exec mode, as shown here:
awplus> enable
awplus#
2. Enter the SHOW POWER-INLINE command at the Privileged Exec
mode prompt, as shown here:
awplus# show power-inline
3. Examine the Power Allocated field in the command output.
It should be 240W. This is the maximum PoE budget for the powered
devices on the ports of the switch sourcing PoE.

If the power budget is 240W, go to the next step.

If the power budget is less than 240W, either the power supply
does not meet the specifications in “Power Supplies” on page 49 or
it has a problem. If the latter, refer to Chapter 6, “Troubleshooting”
on page 119 for troubleshooting suggestions.
4. Review the following information.
Ports connected to non-PoE devices do not require any further
configuration steps. The ports function as regular networking ports, but
without power for PoE devices.
