Configuring Power Policing - Cisco Catalyst 2928 Software Configuration Manual

Configuring Ethernet Interfaces
Beginning in privileged EXEC mode, follow these steps to configure amount of power budgeted to a
powered device connected to a specific PoE port:
Command
Step 1 configure terminal
Step 2
no cdp run
Step 3
interface interface-id
Step 4 power inline consumption wattage
Step 5
end
Step 6 show power inline consumption
Step 7 copy running-config startup-config
To return to the default setting, use the no power inline consumption interface configuration command.
For information about the output of the show power inline consumption privileged EXEC command,
see the command reference for this release.

Configuring Power Policing

By default, the switch monitors the real-time power consumption of connected powered devices. You
can configure the switch to police the power usage. By default, policing is disabled.
For more information about the cutoff power value, the power consumption values that the switch uses,
and the actual power consumption value of the connected device, see the "Power Monitoring and Power
Policing" section.
Beginning in privileged EXEC mode, follow these steps to enable policing of the real-time power
consumption of a powered device connected to a PoE port:
Command
Step 1 configure terminal
Step 2
interface interface-id
