Decouple PoE and datalink operations on PoE ports
Although PoE and datalink operations are functionally independent of each other, some datalink
operations affect the operational behavior of PoE ports. The Decoupling of PoE and Datalink
Operations feature allows you to override the current default behavior.
The following are some example datalink operations that can affect the operational state of the PoE on
PoE ports:
• Using disable or enable CLI on the power sourcing equipment (PSE) port interface
• Adding or deleting a tagged PSE port from a VLAN or VLAN group
• The PSE port enters an ErrDisable state
• Adding or deleting a PSE port from a LAG and deploying it
When the optional
decouple-datalink
keyword is configured using the
inline power
or
inline power
ethernet
command, the datalink operational behavior on a PoE port does not affect the power state of
the powered device (PD) that is connecting to the port. You can also configure the power limits and
power-management priority. The
inline power
command is available in interface configuration mode for
most PoE ports, and the
inline power ethernet
command is available in global configuration mode for
LAG ports.
The feature Decoupling of Inline Power and Datalink Operations on PoE Ports is useful when a PoE
port is powering a PD that serves a PSE device such as the ICX 6450-C12-PD.
NOTE
The
decouple-datalink
keyword was introduced in Release 08.0.01 to support the Decoupling of PoE
and Datalink Operations feature. Decoupling of inline power and datalinks is not supported in releases
earlier than Release 08.0.01.
WARNING
If you downgrade to a release earlier than 08.0.01, there is no backwards compatibility for the
decouple-datalink
keyword or the
inline power ethernet
command.
Restriction
If you want to keep decoupling in place on a PoE port when you configure the
inline power
ethernet
command to change its other parameters, for example, priority, you must also configure the
decouple-
datalink
keyword.
Decoupling of PoE and datalink operations on PoE LAG ports
Perform the following steps to decouple the behavior of the Power over Ethernet (PoE) and the datalink
operations for PoE Link Aggregation Group (LAG) ports.
This task provides a method of overriding the current default behavior of datalink operations that affect
the operation of PoE ports. If you use the optional
decouple-datalink
keyword when enabling inline
power with the
inline power ethernet
command, the datalink operational behavior on a PoE port does
not affect the power state of the powered device (PD) that is connecting to the port.
Configure this task on the Brocade PSE for any PoE ports that require the decoupling of inline power
and datalink operations. Any Layer 2 features can then be configured and deployed on these PoE ports.
