Description
Allows user to enable or disable PoE function. It will causes all of PoE ports to
supply or not supply power.
There are two modes for configuring how the ports/PDs may reserve power and
when to shut down ports.

Classification mode: System offers PoE power according to PD real power
consumption.

Allocation mode: Users are allowed to assign how much PoE power for
each port and system will reserve PoE power to PD.
In the legacy mode, the IEEE method will be tried first and if it fails to discover a
valid PD, the legacy capacitance measurement with a large capacitance value
will be used to detect a legacy PD. This mode is used to support legacy devices.
The default mode is IEEE mode. Enabled legacy mode could damage non-PD
devices.
