Extended Power via MDI TLV

The Extended Power via MDI TLV enables advanced PoE management between LLDP-MED endpoints

and network connectivity devices. Advertise the Extended Power via MDI on all ports that are connected

to an 802.3af powered, LLDP-MED endpoint device.

Power Type: there are two possible power types: Power Sourcing Entity (PSE) or Power Device (PD).

The Dell Force10 system is a PSE, which corresponds to a value of 0, based on the TIA-1057

specification.

Power Source: there are two possible power sources: Primary and Backup. The Dell Force10 system
