Priority Disconnect Is Disabled - Alcatel-Lucent OmniSwitch 6250-24M User Manual

Understanding Priority Disconnect
When a PD is being connected to a port with a lower priority level than all other in the slot, the incoming
PD will be denied power, regardless of its physical port number. Devices connected to other higher-prior-
ity will continue operating without interruption.

Priority Disconnect is Disabled

Reminder. Priority disconnect examples are applicable only when there is inadequate power remaining to
power an incoming device.
When priority disconnect is disabled, power will be denied to any incoming PD, regardless of its port
priority status (i.e., low, high, and critical) or physical port number (i.e., 1/1).
