Understanding and Modifying the Default Settings

The sections below provide information on each of the key components within the Power over Ethernet
software. They include information on PoE-related CLI commands. For detailed information on PoE-
related commands, refer to the OmniSwitch CLI Reference Guide.
Note. PoE units support different wattage power supplies. If unlike power supplies are mixed or if an
unsupported power supply is used, a console message and a trap are generated.

PoE Class Detection

Powered devices can be classified into different classes as shown in the table below. Class detection
allows for automatic maximum power adjustment based on the power class detected. This will prevent the
switch from delivering more than the maximum power allowed based on a device's class.
