Chapter 11 Configuring Interface Characteristics
Understanding Interface Types
The switch monitors and tracks requests for power and grants power only when it is available. The switch
tracks its power budget (the amount of power available on the switch for PoE). The switch performs
power-accounting calculations when a port is granted or denied power to keep the power budget up to
date.
After power is applied to the port, the switch uses CDP to determine the
actual
power consumption
requirement of the connected Cisco powered devices, and the switch adjusts the power budget
accordingly. This does not apply to third-party PoE devices. The switch processes a request and either
grants or denies power. If the request is granted, the switch updates the power budget. If the request is
denied, the switch ensures that power to the port is turned off, generates a syslog message, and updates
the LEDs. Powered devices can also negotiate with the switch for more power.
If the switch detects a fault caused by an undervoltage, overvoltage, overtemperature, oscillator-fault, or
short-circuit condition, it turns off power to the port, generates a syslog message, and updates the power
budget and LEDs.
The PoE feature operates the same whether or not the switch is a stack member. The power budget is
per-switch and independent of any other switch in the stack. Election of a new stack master does not
affect PoE operation. The stack master keeps track of PoE status for all switches and ports in the stack
and includes the status in output displays.
Power Management Modes
The switch supports these PoE modes:
•
auto
—The switch automatically detects if the connected device requires power. If the switch
discovers a powered device connected to the port and if the switch has enough power, it grants
power, updates the power budget, turns on power to the port on a first-come, first-served basis, and
updates the LEDs. For LED information, see the hardware installation guide.
If the switch has enough power for all the powered devices, they all come up. If enough power is
available for all powered devices connected to the switch, power is turned on to all devices. If there
is not enough available PoE, or if a device is disconnected and reconnected while other devices are
waiting for power, it cannot be determined which devices are granted or are denied power.
If granting power would exceed the system power budget, the switch denies power, ensures that
power to the port is turned off, generates a syslog message, and updates the LEDs. After power has
been denied, the switch periodically rechecks the power budget and continues to attempt to grant the
request for power.
If a device being powered by the switch is then connected to wall power, the switch might continue
to power the device. The switch might continue to report that it is still powering the device whether
the device is being powered by the switch or receiving power from an AC power source.
If a powered device is removed, the switch automatically detects the disconnect and removes power
from the port. You can connect a nonpowered device without damaging it.
