Run:
poe power-management { auto | manual } [ slot slot-id ]
The power supply management mode is configured.
(Optional) Manually powering on or powering off the PD connected to an interface
NOTE
When the manual power management mode is adopted, you must manually power on or power off
PDs on interfaces.

Run:
poe power-on interface interface-type interface-number or poe power-off
interface interface-type interface-number
The PD connected to an interface is powered on or powered off manually.
(Optional) Configuring a board to allow high inrush current during power-on
If a PD does not comply with IEEE 802.3at or 802.3af, high inrush current is generated
when the PD is powered on. In this case, the PSE cuts off the power of the PD to protect
itself. If the PSE is required to provide power for the PD, the PSE must allow high inrush
current.

Run:
poe high-inrush enable
A PoE board is configured to allow high inrush current during power-on.
By default, a board does not allow high inrush power during power-on.
(Optional) Setting the percentage of the reserved PoE power against the total PoE power
The S5700 can dynamically allocate power to each interface according to the power
consumption of each interface. The power consumption of a PD keeps changing when the
PD is running. The S5700 periodically calculates the total power consumption of all the
PDs connected to the device. If the total power consumption exceeds the upper threshold
of the board, the S5700 cuts off the power of the PDs on the interfaces of low priority to
ensure that other PDs can run normally.
Sometimes, the power consumption increases sharply and the available power of the device
cannot support the burst increase of power. At this time, the software system has not found
that the total power consumption exceeded the upper threshold; therefore, the S5700 does
not power off interfaces of low priority in time. As a result, the PoE power supply is shut
down for overload protection, and hence all PDs are powered off.
This problem can be solved by setting proper reserved power. When the power consumption
increases sharply, the reserved power can support the system running. Then the system
software has time to power off interfaces of low priority to ensure stable running of other
PDs.
