Usage Guidelines
This command is supported only on the LAN Base image.
This command is supported only on Power over Ethernet (PoE)-capable ports. If you enter this command on
a device or port that does not support PoE, an error message appears.
In a switch stack, this command is supported on all switches or ports in the stack that support PoE and real-time
power-consumption monitoring.
When policing of the real-time power consumption is enabled, the device takes action when a powered device
consumes more power than the allocated maximum amount.
When PoE is enabled, the device senses the real-time power consumption of the powered device. This feature
is called
power monitoring or power sensing . The device also polices the power usage with the power policing
feature.
When power policing is enabled, the device uses one of the these values as the cutoff power on the PoE port
in this order:
1 The user-defined power level that limits the power allowed on the port when you enter the power inline
auto max max-wattage or the power inline static max max-wattage interface configuration command
