Configuring PoE Port Settings

This procedure enables and disables PoE on a port. This procedure also
sets a port’s priority level and its maximum power usage.

The default setting for PoE on a port is enabled. You do not have to
disable PoE on ports connected to non-powered devices (that is, devices
that receive their power from another power source). A port connected to a
network node that is not a powered device functions as a regular Ethernet
port, without PoE. The PoE feature remains activated on the port but no
power is delivered to the device.

To configure PoE port settings, do the following:

1. From the Home Page, select Configuration.

2. Select the System menu option.

3. Select the Power Over Ethernet tab.

Note

The Power Over Ethernet tab only appears for AT-8524POE
switches.

4. In the graphic image of the switch, click the port you want to configure.

A selected port turns white. You can configure more than one port at a
time.

5. Click Modify.
