
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 powered 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.

Consumption mode
In this mode the ports are shut down when the actual power consumption for all ports exceeds the amount of power that the
power supply can deliver or if the actual power consumption for a given port exceeds the reserved power for that port. The
ports are shut down according to the ports priority. If two ports have the same priority the port with the highest port number
is shut down.

Priority mode
In this mode the user assigns the priority to the ports/PD. When the total PoE power consumption request is over the
allowed power supply limitation, the system shuts down PoE ports by port priority setting.
Power Over Ethernet Configuration
This section allows the user to inspect and configure the current PoE configuration settings
