enable inline-power legacy slot
ExtremeWare XOS 11.5 supports only the Summit X450 family of switches and the BlackDiamond 8800 series switch.
ExtremeWare XOS 11.5 Command Reference Guide
529
enable inline-power legacy slot
enable inline-power legacy slot <slot>
Description
Enables non-standard (or capacitance) power detection mechanism for the specified slot.
Syntax Description
Default
Disable.
Usage Guidelines
This command enables the non-standard power-detection mechanism on the specified slot. Legacy PDs
do not conform to the IEEE 802.3af standard but may be detected by the switch through a capacitance
measurement.
However, measuring the power through capacitance is used
only
if this parameter is enabled and
after
an unsuccessful attempt to discover the PD using the standard resistance measurement method. The
default for legacy is disabled.
CAUTION
A normal (non-PoE) device may have a capacitance signature that causes the device to be detected as a legacy PoE
device (and have power supplied), potentially causing damage to the device.
Example
The following command enables capacitance detection of PDs on slot 3 on a modular switch:
enable inline-power legacy slot 3
History
This command was first available in ExtremeWare XOS 11.1.
Platform Availability
This command is available on the G48P and G48Pe modules installed in the BlackDiamond 8800 series
switch.
slot
