used after a specific command to list the available options.

1.5.2 AVAILABLE-POWER
This command allows you to set a deliverable power limit for all devices powered by the switch. Default is 120000.
The indicated value is in milliwatts.
Use the NO command to restore the default value.
For the equipment to function correctly, the value configured in this parameter must always be equal to (or lower
than) the actual value of the source connected to the router.
Syntax:
ethernet0/0 PSE config>available-power ?
<120000..245000>
milliWatts
Example:
ethernet0/0 PSE config>available-power 140000
1.5.3 DEFAULT-PORT-CONSUMPTION
Allows you to set the computed consumption value for each device connected to the switch.
The value is 0 by default, corresponding to the NO value.
The indicated value is in milliwatts.
The following strategy is used when calculating the power delivered to the devices:
• If a value has been configured for this parameter, it will be used as the consumption value for each connected
device.
By programming this parameter, you do not need to be overly restrictive with the devices that show high consump-
tion levels during detection (automatically assigned to the default class when incapable of implementing class detec-
tion) but end up not consuming as much.
Note
Programmers are responsible for assigning values that match the actual parameters of the devices to
be connected.
• If a value has not been configured, the consumption value for each device will correspond to the value configured
for the port (when in forced power mode) or to the value of the class detected for this device. In this case, the
power is:
