Allocating Power to the PoE Ports
To allocate power to each PoE port, perform the following procedure:
1. From the main menu, select PoE.
The Power over Ethernet page is shown in Figure 11 on page 36.
2. In the Port Setting section, select a port from the Port list, or highlight
it in the table below.
3. To enable or disable a PoE port, from the Port State list, choose
Disable or Enable. The default is disable.
4. To set the port’s priority for receiving power in the event of some
power loss on the switch, select a number from the Priority list.
The lower the number that you select, the higher the port’s priority. If
you assign the same priority to more than one port, power is allocated
according to the physical order of the ports. For example, if you assign
priority 5 to ports 3 and 11, in the event of a power loss port 3 will get
available power and port 11 might not.
5. In the Allocation field, enter a number for the milliwats of power you
want that port to receive.
6. Click Modify.
7. Click OK.
8. Click Reload.
Note
You MUST save the configuration for PoE power to be applied to the
port.
9. From the main menu, select Save Configuration.
The Save Configuration page is shown in Figure 3 on page 13.
10. Click OK.
