Configuring The Total Power Available To A Port; Configuring The Total Power Available To A Switch - Alcatel-Lucent OmniSwitch 6250-24M User Manual

Configuring Power over Ethernet Parameters
Disabling PoE
To disable PoE on a particular slot or port, use the
To disable PoE on a specific PoE-capable port, enter a slot/port number. For example:
-> lanpower stop 1/4
To disable PoE for all PoE-capable in a slot, enter the corresponding slot number only.
For example:
-> lanpower stop 1
Enabling/Disabling PoE on Copper Combo Ports
To enable the PoE capability on the copper combo ports use the
example:
-> lanpower 1 combo-port enable
Enabling PoE capability on the copper combo ports disables PoE capability on ports 23/24 and vice versa

Configuring the Total Power Available to a Port

By default, each port is authorized by the system software to use up to a maximum amount of milliwatts to
power any attached device.
You can either increase or decrease this value based on the range in the specifications table.
Increasing the total power available to an individual port may provide a more demanding Powered Device
(PD) with additional power required for operation. Decreasing the total power available to a port helps to
preserve inline power and assists in the overall management of the switch's power budget.
To increase or decrease the total power available to an individual port, use the
Since you are setting the power allowance for an individual port, you must specify a slot/port number in
the command line. For example, the syntax
-> lanpower 1/1 power 3000
reduces the power available on port 1 of the switch to 3000 milliwatts. This new value is now the maxi-
mum amount of power the port can use to power any attached device (until the value is modified by the
user).

Configuring the Total Power Available to a Switch

Like the maximum port power allowance, the system software also provides a maximum slot-wide power
allowance. By default, each switch is authorized by the system software to use up to the maximum watts
available from the PoE power supply.
As with the maximum port power allowance, the user can either increase or decrease this value based on
the range in the specifications table.
Increasing the total power available to a switch may provide more demanding Powered Devices (PDs)
with additional power required for operation. Decreasing the total power available helps preserve inline
power and assists in the overall management of the switch's power budget.
