Disable Inline-Power Legacy Slot - Extreme Networks ExtremeWare XOS Command Reference Manual

disable inline-power legacy slot

disable inline-power legacy slot
disable inline-power legacy slot <slot>
Description
Disables the non-standard (or capacitance) power detection mechanism for the specified slot.
Syntax Description
slot Disables non-standard power detection for specified slot.
Default
Disable.
Usage Guidelines
This command disables the non-standard power-detection mechanism on the specified slot. Legacy PDs
do not conform to the IEEE 802.3af standard but may be detected by the switch through a capacitance
measurement.
However, measuring the power through capacitance is used only if this parameter is enabled and after
an unsuccessful attempt to discover the PD using the standard resistance measurement method. The
default for legacy is disabled.
The reason legacy detection is configurable is that it is possible for a normal (non-PoE) device to have a
capacitance signature that causes the device to be detected as a legacy PoE device and have power
delivered to it, potentially causing damage to the device.
Example
The following command disables capacitance detection of PDs on slot 3:
disable inline-power legacy slot 3
