Usage Guidelines

Usage Scenarios

By default, a PoE device works in automatic power management mode. After a PD is connected to a PoE device, the PoE device automatically provides power for the PD.

After you run the poe power-management command to configure the power management mode of a PoE device to manual, the PoE device does not automatically provide power for PDs when PDs are connected to the PoE device. You need to run the poe power-on interface command to manually power on the interfaces of the PoE device. Check whether the interface is powered on based on the Power ON/OFF field in the display poe power-state command.

Precautions

When the available power of the device is insufficient and the device cannot provide power for a new PD, the poe power-on interface command is invalid.

Pre-configuration Tasks

Before powering on or powering off an interface, ensure that:

The power management mode has been in manual mode through running the poe power-management command.
PDs have been connected to the interface.
The PoE function of the interface has been enabled.
The classification of the PDs connected to the interface has finished and the PDs have been ready for being powered on.

Example

# Manually power on PDs connected to GigabitEthernet 0/0/1.
