Item Description
Power Priority
Set the power supply priority for a PoE port. The priority levels of a PoE port
include low, high, and critical in ascending order.
z
When the PoE power is insufficient, power is first supplied to PoE ports with a
higher priority level.
z
When the PSE power is overloaded, the PoE port with a lower priority is first
disconnected to guarantee the power supply to the PD with a higher priority.
z
If you set the priority of a PoE port to
critical
, the system compares the
guaranteed remaining PSE power (the maximum PSE power minus the
maximum power allocated to the existing critical PoE port, regardless of
whether PoE is enabled for the PoE port) with the maximum power of this PoE
port. If the former is greater than the latter, you can succeed in setting the
priority to
critical
, and this PoE port will preempt the power of other PoE ports
with a lower priority level; otherwise, you will fail to set the PoE port to
critical
.
In the former case, the PoE ports whose power is preempted will be powered
off, but their configurations will remain unchanged. When you change the
priority of a PoE port from critical to a lower level, the PDs connecting to other
PoE ports will have an opportunity of being powered.
By default, the power priority of a PoE port is
low
.
z
19 watts guard band is reserved for each PoE port on the device to prevent a
PD from being powered off because of a sudden increase of the PD power.
When the remaining power of the PSE is lower than 19 watts, the port with a
higher priority can preempt the power of the port with a lower priority to ensure
the normal working of the higher priority port.
z
If the sudden increase of the PD power results in PSE power overload, power
supply to the PD on the PoE interface with a lower priority will be stopped to
ensure the power supply to the PD with a higher priority.
