Command Manual – PoE
H3C S7500 Series Ethernet Switches
Chapter 1 PoE Configuration Commands
1-13
By default, the PoE management mode of the switch is
manual
.
This command and the PoE priority settings of PoE ports will work together to control
the power feeding of the switch when the switch is reaching its full power load in power
supply.
z
auto
mode: When the switch is reaching its full load in supplying power, it will first
supply power to the PDs that are connected to the ports with critical priority, and
secondly supply power to the PDs that are connected to the ports with high priority.
For example, port A has the power priority of
critical
. When the switch is reaching
full load and a new PD is now added to the port A, the switch will power down a PD
that is connected to a port with the lowest priority and turn to feed this new PD.
z
manual
mode: When the switch is reaching its full load in supplying power
externally and a new PD is added, it will neither consider the priority nor make
change to its original power supply status; only the information about the newly
added device is provided. For example, port A has the priority of
critical
. When
the switch is reaching full load and a new PD is now connected to port A, the
switch does not supply power to this new device.
