power-inline max

This command sets the “maximum” power allocated to a Power over an Ethernet (PoE and
PoE+) port. The amount of power actually supplied to the port depends on the power
requirements of the connected PD. It is also a function of the total PoE power loading on
the switch and the PoE priority set for the port by the

power-inline priority

command.

However this command (power-inline max) does apply a “maximum” value to the power
that the port is able to supply.

Note that the value set by this command will be the figure the switch will use when
apportioning the power budget for its ports. For example, if 15.4 W is assigned to a port
whose PD only consumes 5 W, the switch will reserve the full 15.4 W for this port when
determining its total power PoE power requirement.

The no variant of this command sets the maximum power supplied to a PoE port to the
default, which is set to the maximum power limit for the class of the connected Powered
Device (PD).

Syntax

power-inline max <4000-30000>

no power-inline max

Default

The Power Sourcing Equipment (PSE) supplies the maximum power limit for the class of
the PD connected to the port by default.

Mode

Interface Configuration

Usage

In a stack of x310 series switches this command is supported on all PoE capable ports.

Select a PoE port, a list of PoE ports, or a range of PoE ports with the preceding

interface

(to configure)

command. If you specify a range or list of ports they must all be PoE

capable ports.

If you select a range of PoE ports in Interface Configuration mode before issuing this
command, then each port in the range selected will have the same maximum power value
configured. If the PoE port attempts to draw more than the maximum power, this is
logged and all power is removed. Note that the value entered is rounded up to the next
value supported by the hardware.

Note

Note that the value set by this command will be the figure the switch will use
when apportioning the power budget for its ports. For example, if 15.4 W is
assigned to a port whose PD only consumes 5 W, the switch will reserve the full
15.4 W for this port when determining its total power PoE power requirement.

Parameter

Description

<4000-30000>

The maximum power allocated to a PoE port in milliwatts
(mW).

Note

Power limits for all classes of PDs are listed in

“Power classes” on page 22.5
