Avaya Power Over Ethernet Practical Manual page 21

6500 series
IOS release 12.2SX and higher:
power inline {auto [max max-milli-watts]} | never | {static [max max-milli-
watts]}
Power inline sets the interface (port) to sense for and apply power if a PD is connected.
Auto will sense the class of a non-Cisco PD and apply power of the top of the class range
Max[milli-watts] allows you to specify a power ceiling that is lower than the class maximum, but higher than
the PD requires. Valid range is 4000 to 15400 milli-watts. This option will reduce the amount of logically
reserved power and is especially important when using class-3 PDs.
Static acts the same as auto except that it pre-allocates power to that port during startup. This is useful for
important PDs like access points and critical phones because it gives them priority over other PDs by pre-
allocating power.

Never disallows power to a port and searching – even if a PD is connected.
Using the partial command "power inline" with no arguments defaults to auto mode and 15400 milli-
watts
Cat-OS 8.5 or higher
set port inlinepower mod/port {auto | static | limit} [max-wattage][off]
Set port inline power specifies a power mode for a port or group of ports
Auto - will sense the class of a non-Cisco PD and apply power of the top of the class range
Static - acts the same as auto except that it pre-allocates power to that port during startup. This is useful
for important PDs like access points and critical phones because it gives them priority over other PDs by
pre-allocating power.
limit - Limits power on the specified port. This option allows you to specify power lower than the PD class,
but higher than the PD requires. If the PD power exceeds the limit, power to the port will be disabled. The
limit keyword is supported only on modules with the WS-F6K-48-AF daughter card.
max-wattage (Optional) The maximum power allowed on the port in either auto or static mode; valid values
are from 4000 to 15400 milliwatts.
off Prevents the port from providing power to a PD. Syntax is "set port inlinepower mod/port off"
Two other commands are available but only apply to Cisco phones. Do not use these commands with
Avaya phones.
