Allocation mode

In this mode, the user allocates the amount of power that each port may reserve. The allocated/reserved power for each

port/PD is specified in the Maximum Power fields. The ports are shut down when total reserved power exceeds the amount

of power that the power supply can deliver.

In this mode, the port power is not turned on if the PD requests more available power.
