poe power limit
This command configures the type of power limit for a port. If the power limit type is "user-
defined", the command will also allow you to configure a maximum power limit.
The possible options are:
•
dot3af - Allows the port to draw upto the max class power based on the class of the device
connected.
•
none - Allows the port to draw upto Class 0 max power if in low-power mode and upto class
4 max power if in high-power mode.
•
User defined - Allows the user to define a max power to the port. This can be a value between
3000 and 32000 mW.
no poe power limit
This command will set the power limit type to default. It will also set the maximum power limit to
default if the power limit type is "user-defined". The default power limit type will be "none". The
default user defined max power limit will be 15.4 Watts.
poe power management
This command configures the power management mode on the PoE switch. Both Static and
Dynamic Power management modes will not power up a port if the available power is less than the
power limit defined for a port. The difference is in how the available power is calculated for these
modes.
