see the relevant Dell Networking OS Command Line Reference Guide.
The following is a list of the Dell Networking OS version history for this command.
Version Description
9.8(2.0) Introduced on the S3100 series.
Usage information
The power inline [max_milliwatts} command enables inline power supply
to an interface. You can specify the maximum amount of power allocation to a
device in max-milliwatts from 440 to 30000 mW. If a specific power supply value is
not configured, the default value 30,000 mW is configured as the maximum power
for allocation to powered devices. You can disable the inline power supply to a
port using the no power inline command.
The power inline priority command allows you to specify the power inline
priority for an interface when a power shortage occurs. PoE is removed from ports
configured with
low priority first, then ports configured with high priority are
disabled. The ports configured with critical priority are the last ports disabled
during a power shortage. When two or more ports are configured with same
priority level, the ports with higher interface numbers are disabled first. For
example, if ports 1, 2, 47, and 48 are all configured with a low priority and there is a
shortage of inline power supply, PoE is first disabled on port 48, followed by port
47 and, then port 2. Port 1 (with the lowest interface number) takes precedence
over all other ports and is disabled after all other ports are disabled.
