Interface Configuration
Command Usage
• If the power demand from devices connected to the switch exceeds the
power budget setting, the switch uses port power priority settings to
control the supplied power. For example:
- A device connected to a low-priority port that causes the switch to
exceed its budget is not supplied power.
- A device connected to a critical or high-priority port that causes the
switch to exceed its budget is supplied power, but the switch drops
power to one or more lower-priority ports.
